"This book studies the complex attitude of late ancient Christians towards classical education. In recent years, the different theoretical positions that can be found among the Church Fathers have received particular attention: their statements ranged from enthusiastic assimilation to outright rejection, the latter sometimes masking implicit adoption. Shifting attention away from such explicit statements, this volume focuses on a series ..."

"Of these, the first 21 were transmitted together, and in a largely fixed order.2 The last five letters, on the other hand, seem to have been added to this original corpus at a later stage,3 and will therefore be of lesser concern to me here. ... Richard Foerster and Heinz-Günther Nesselrath have already observed, for example, that these letters document a close relationship between Basil and Libanius, and suggested that the main po ..."

ISBN-13: 978-3-11-028391-4, ISBN: 3-11-028391-3

"Was das Heilige ist und wie man darüber sprechen kann, ist eine offene Frage in der religionswissenschaftlichen und theologischen Forschung. Jenseits der klassischen Entwürfe von Durkheim, Otto oder Eliade kann Heiliges heute nur in multiperspektivischer Betrachtung angemessen untersucht werden. Die Beiträge zu diesem Band analysieren Diskurse über Heiliges in spätantiken Religionskulturen: griechisch-römische Religion, Judentum und Chr ..."

Christian Martyrdom in Late Antiquity(1st Edition)

ISBN-13: 978-3-11-055243-0, ISBN: 3-11-055243-4

" The present volume’s focus lies on the formation of a multifaccetted discourse on Christian martyrdom in Late Antiquity. While martyrdom accounts remain a central means of defining Christian identity, new literary genres emerge, e.g., the Lives of Saints (Athanasius on Antony), sermons (the Cappadocians), hynms (Prudentius) and more.

ISBN-13: 978-3-11-055188-4, ISBN: 3-11-055188-8

"Recent studies on the development of early Christianity emphasize the fragmentation of the late ancient world while paying less attention to a distinctive feature of the Christianity of this time which is its inter-connectivity. Both local and trans-regional networks of interaction contributed to the expansion of Christianity in this age of fragmentation. This volume investigates a specific aspect of this inter-connectivity in the area ..."

ISBN-13: 978-3-16-155857-3, ISBN: 3-16-155857-X

"Religion requires education. Soon after the emergence of Christianity, religious education became crucial to the development of Christian communities in towns and in the countryside. The present volume analyzes the human agents of this education: bishops, catechists, mothers and fathers, monastic teachers. It thus offers a comparative analysis of teachers' roles in Christian educational contexts, dealing with questions such as: Who taug ..."

ISBN-13: 978-3-11-021642-4, ISBN: 3-11-021642-6

"Carl Andresen (1909 1985) posed questions of continuing relevance: what was the attitude of early Christianity to the intellectual history of antiquity, how did it categorize theology and philosophy with respect to each other, how did it defend the Bible s claim to truth against concurrent systems of thought? This study provides an extensive and detailed reconstruction of the meeting of the world of antiquity and Christianity, including ..."

"Vigilantius bemängelte, man feiere öfter Heiligengedenktage als Ostern ( Hieronymus, Contra Vigilantium 9). ...
