Collecting Early Christian Letters: From the Apostle Paul to Late Antiquity
ISBN: 9781107091863 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Letter collections in late antiquity give witness to the flourishing of letter-writing, with the development of the mostly formulaic exchanges between elites of the Graeco-Roman world to a more wide-ranging correspondence by bishops and monks, as well as emperors and Gothic kings. The contributors to this volume study individual collections from the first to sixth centuries CE, ranging from the Pauline and Deutero-Pauline letters through monastic letters from Egypt, bishops' letter collections and early papal collections compiled for various purposes. This is the first multi-authored study of...

Leo the Great
ISBN: 9780415394819 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Pope Leo I's theological and political influence in his own time (440-461) and beyond far outweighs the amount of attention he has received in recent scholarship. That influence extended well beyond Rome to the Christian East through his contribution to preparations for the Council of Chalcedon and its outcome. For this he was alternately praised and vilified by the opposing parties at the Council. Leo made his views known through letters, and a vast number of homilies. While so many of these survive, Leo and his works have not been the subject of a major English-language socio-historical...

Crisis Management in Late Antiquity (410-590 CE): A Survey of the Evidence from Episcopal Letters
ISBN: 9789004185777 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Pauline Allen and Bronwen Neil investigate crisis management as conducted by the increasingly important episcopal class in the 5th and 6th centuries. Their basic source is the neglected corpus of bishops' letters in Greek and Latin, the letter being the most significant mode of communication and information-transfer in the period from 410 to 590 CE. The volume brings together into a wider setting a wealth of previous international research on episcopal strategies for dealing with crises of various kinds. Six broad categories of crisis are identified and analysed: population displacement,...

Maximus the Confessor (c.580-662) has become one of the most discussed figures in contemporary patristic studies.

Dreams, Memory and Imagination in Byzantium
ISBN: 9789004366862 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This collection of studies on Dreams, Memory and Imagination in Byzantium covers four main themes: the place of dreams, imagination and memory in the Byzantine philosophical tradition; the political uses of prophetic dreams and visions in imperial contexts; the appearance and manipulation of dreams and memory in Byzantine poetry and histories, and changing commemorations of the saints over time in art, epigraphy and literature. These studies reveal the distinctive and important roles of memory, imagination and dreams in the Byzantine court, the proto-Orthodox church and broader society from...

A Companion to Gregory the Great
ISBN: 9789004257757 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 454 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What made Pope Gregory I "great"? If the Middle Ages had no difficulty recognizing Gregory as one of its most authoritative points of reference, modern readers have not always found this question as easy to answer. As with any great figure, however, there are two sides to Gregory - the historical and the universal. The contributors to this handbook look at Gregory's "greatness" from both of these angles: what made Gregory stand out among his contemporaries; and what is unique about Gregory's contribution through his many written works to the development of human thought and described human...

Questions of Gender in Byzantine Society
ISBN: 9781409447795 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Gender was a key social indicator in Byzantine society, as in many others. While studies of gender in the western medieval period have appeared regularly in the past decade, similar studies of Byzantium have lagged behind. Masculine and feminine roles were not always as clearly defined as in the West, while eunuchs made up a 'third gender' in the imperial court. Social status indicators were also in a state of flux, as much linked to patronage networks as to wealth, as the Empire came under a series of external and internal pressures. This fluidity applied equally in ecclesiastical and...
