novellus, dim. of novus new. See New.]
Of recent origin or introduction; not ancient; new; hence,
out of the ordinary course; unusual; strange; surprising.

Novel assignment (Law), a new assignment or specification
of a suit.
[1913 Webster]
Syn: New; recent; modern; fresh; strange; uncommon; rare;
unusual.
Usage: Novel, New . Everything at its first occurrence is
new; that is novel which is so much out of the
ordinary course as to strike us with surprise. That is
a new sight which is beheld for the first time; that
is a novel sight which either was never seen before or
is seen but seldom. We have daily new inventions, but
a novel one supposes some very peculiar means of
attaining its end. Novel theories are regarded with
distrust, as likely to prove more ingenious than
sound.

novel
(wn) | novel
adj 1: original and of a kind not seen before; "the computer
produced a completely novel proof of a well-known
theorem" [syn: fresh, new, novel]
2: pleasantly new or different; "common sense of a most
refreshing sort" [syn: novel, refreshing]
n 1: an extended fictional work in prose; usually in the form of
a story
2: a printed and bound book that is an extended work of fiction;
"his bookcases were filled with nothing but novels"; "he
burned all the novels" |
novel
(devil) | NOVEL, n. A short story padded. A species of composition bearing the
same relation to literature that the panorama bears to art. As it is
too long to be read at a sitting the impressions made by its
successive parts are successively effaced, as in the panorama. Unity,
totality of effect, is impossible; for besides the few pages last read
all that is carried in mind is the mere plot of what has gone before.
To the romance the novel is what photography is to painting. Its
distinguishing principle, probability, corresponds to the literal
actuality of the photograph and puts it distinctly into the category
of reporting; whereas the free wing of the romancer enables him to
mount to such altitudes of imagination as he may be fitted to attain;
and the first three essentials of the literary art are imagination,
imagination and imagination. The art of writing novels, such as it
was, is long dead everywhere except in Russia, where it is new. Peace
to its ashes -- some of which have a large sale.

novell dos
(foldoc) | Novell DOS
Novell's fully compatible
alternative to MS-DOS. It is intended as an {operating
system} for workstations on Novell networks. It features
enhanced memory management that moves the operating system,
network drivers, and memory-resident programs (TSRs) out
of conventional memory on all systems with an Intel 80286 or
later processor and extended memory or expanded memory.
It supports preemptive multitasking and {peer-to-peer
networking} using the same DOS Requester and VLMs for a
"common client" with native Novell NetWare.
A data compression utility effectively doubles storage
capacity of the hard disk. It supports disk
defragmentation, a read/write disk cache for better
performance of both DOS and Microsoft Windows {application
programs}. An undelete utility recovers erased files, even on
network drives. It has a complete on-line reference guide,
command help, and menu-driven install and setup utilities for
easy configuration changes.
Novell DOS has internal and external commands like MS-DOS.
The following commands have been significantly enhanced in
Novell DOS: CHKDSK, DISKCOPY, HELP, MEM, REPLACE, UNDELETE,
and XCOPY. Novell DOS also includes many new commands such as
XDIR, CURSOR, XDEL, TOUCH, SCRIPT, and RENDIR.

NOVELLAE LEONIS
(bouvier) | NOVELLAE LEONIS. The ordinances of the emperor Leo, which were made from the
year 887 till the year 893, are so called. These novels changed many rules
of the Justinian law. This collection contains one hundred and thirteen
novels, written originally in Greek, and afterwards, in 1560, translated
into Latin, by Agilaeus.
|
NOVELS
(bouvier) | NOVELS, civil law. The name given to some constitutions or laws of some of
the Roman emperors; this name was so given because they were new or
posterior to the laws which they had before published. The novels were made
to supply what bad not been foreseen in the preceding laws, or to amend or
alter the laws in force.
2. Although the novels of Justinian are the best known, and when the
word novels only is mentioned, those of Justinian are always intended, he
was not the first who gave the name of novels to his constitution and laws.
Some of the acts of Theodosius, Valentinien, Leo, Severus, Anthemius, and
others, were, also called novels. But the novels of the emperors who
preceded Justinian bad not the force of law, after the enactment of the law
by order of that emperor. Those novels are not, however, entirely useless,
because the code of Justinian having been composed mainly from the
Theodosian code and the novels, the latter frequently remove doubts which
arise on the construction of the code. The novels of, Justinian form the
fourth part of the Corpus Juris Civilis. They are directed either to some,
officer, or an archbishop or bishop, or to some private individual of
Constantinople but they all had the force and authority of law. The number
of the novels is uncertain. The 118th novel is the foundation and groundwork
of the English statute of distribution of intestate's effects, which has
been copied into many states of the Union. Vide 1 P. Wms. 27; Pr. in Chan.
