The Greek Historia Monachorum in Aegypto: Monastic Hagiography in the Late Fourth Century
ISBN: 9780198758259 / Hiszpański / Twarda / 2016 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Winner of the Kayden Book Award The Greek Historia Monachorum in Aegypto was one of the most widely read and disseminated Greek hagiographic texts during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages.

However, until now it has not received the intensive and sustained scholarly analysis that a monograph...

The Letters of Jerome: Asceticism, Biblical Exegesis, and the Construction of Christian Authority in Late Antiquity
ISBN: 9780199563555 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the centuries following his death, Jerome (c.347-420) was venerated as a saint and as one of the four Doctors of the Latin church. In his own lifetime, however, he was a severely marginalized figure whose intellectual and spiritual authority did not go unchallenged, at times not even by those in his inner circle. His ascetic theology was rejected by the vast majority of Christian contemporaries, his Hebrew scholarship was called into question by the leading Biblical authorities of the day, and the reputation he cultivated as a pious monk was compromised by allegations of moral impropriety...
