The Impact of Scripture in Early Christianity
ISBN: 9789004111431 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. One of the most conspicuous innovations of early Christianity within Greco-Roman culture is its reliance upon a collection of authoritative texts. The ultimate author of Scripture was thought to be God Himself, whose will could and should be sought and found in these holy writings. For this reason it is not surprising that very soon these texts not only became the object of careful attention and scholarly study, but also put their stamp on the various forms and manifestations of early Christian life, such as martyrdom, asceticism, liturgy, art, and literature. This multifarious influence of...

Early Christian Poetry: A Collection of Essays
ISBN: 9789004099395 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This collection of essays deals with the rise and development of early Christian poetry, discussing its techniques and its theoretical foundation. The individual papers concern specimina of Hebrew, Syriac, Greek and Latin poetry and study the various and partly conflicting traditions from which it originated. The biblical examples, e.g. of the Psalms, held great authority, but on the other hand it was impossible to break away from the models of classical Greco-Roman poetry, although these were deemed dangerous because of the pagan content and excessive cult of literary art. The book shows how...

Philological and Historical Commentary on Ammianus Marcellinus XXVIII
ISBN: 9789004215993 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Book 28 Ammianus describes the military activity of Valentinian on the Rhine. The historian speaks with admiration about his efforts to strengthen the northwestern border of the empire. He shows a similar esteem for the general Theodosius, who re-established order in Britain. However, in the greater part of Book 28 there is an air of gloom. Ammianus writes reluctantly about the judicial terror inflicted on the Roman aristocracy by powerful magistrates. In his digression about Roman manners he speaks with contempt about the senatorial elite and the Roman plebs, because they fail to live up...
