Abstract

In diesem Buch analysiert Veronika Müller Julians Werk Ad Florum 1 , das durch Augustinus im Contra Iulianum opus imperfectum ausführlich zitiert und kommentiert wurde. Ad Florum 1 wird erstmalig in einem zusammenhängenden Textfluss ohne Augustins Kommentare, mit einer deutschen Übersetzung und einem Kommentar dargeboten. Die wichtigsten Erkenntnisse sind in der Hinführung gesammelt, die dem Leser eine gute Orientierung für die Interpretation des lateinischen Textes ermöglicht. Veronika Müller erhellt mit ihrer Untersuchung den literarischen und philosophisch-theologischen Kontext von Julians Werk und rückt insbesondere Julians rhetorisch-argumentative Vorgehensweise ins Zentrum der Betrachtung. In this volume Veronika Müller examines Julian's work Ad Florum 1 , which is both quoted and commented by Augustine in his Contra Iulianum opus imperfectum. For the first time, Ad Florum 1 is offered in continuous text without Augustine's comments, including a German translation and with a commentary. The most important findings are collected in the introduction providing the reader with a compass to the interpretation of the Latin text. With her analysis, Veronika Müller illuminates the literary and philosophical-theological context of Julian's work particularly focusing on Julian's rhetorical-argumentative approach.

Abstract

"Avitus of Vienne is the author of five poetic books of the Spiritual History celebrating the importance of Christ in baptismal catechesis by the glorification of the patriarchs Adam, Noah and Moses. Catholic bishop belonging to the Gallo-Roman aristocracy, Avitus is a man of great classical learning. The present study examines Avitus' poetic style, by combining a narratological approach with the methods of traditional philology. This analysis highlights the importance of the two auctorial voices constructing the poem: the voice of the bishop, formed by the practice of the liturgy of the Word, and the voice of the poet, steeped in rhetoric and paying tribute to classical poetics. These crossing voices produce a poem accessible to a large audience, whether contemporary or posterior to the 6th century - we know that the poem has enjoyed wide circulation during the middle Ages. Secondly, the analysis focuses on the construction of the poetic narrative, explores the adaptation of the epic codes to the transmission of the Christian faith and emphasizes Avitus' debt to the Latin epic poets. Finally, the stylistic and metrical study proves the perfect mastery he has of the hexameter"--Back cover.

Abstract

Première œuvre conservée de saint Augustin, le Contre les Académiciens ouvre les Dialogues philosophiques de Cassiciacum composés à la fin de 386. Son objet principal est la question de la connaissance, traitée à partir de la réfutation des « Académiciens », ces partisans de la Nouvelle Académie qui entendaient proposer une interprétation sceptique du platonisme. Ce dialogue est un témoignage exceptionnel de l'état d'esprit du jeune Augustin, récemment converti et marqué par l'influence du néoplatonisme, ainsi qu'une clé de lecture pour son projet intellectuel et doctrinal qui s'annonce. Il illustre également la réception critique de Cicéron, l'un des plus célèbres défenseurs des Néoacadémiciens, ce qui fait de cette œuvre non seulement un moment important de la philosophie romaine, mais aussi un jalon essentiel dans l'histoire du scepticisme antique et au-delà.

Abstract

"The Apocalypse or Book of Revelation is one of the most frequently discussed books of the biblical canon and arguably one of the most difficult to interpret. This volume contains three texts as examples of late ancient Christian interpretation of its intriguing visions. It also includes a comprehensive introduction to each text by its respective translator. 'Brief explanations of the Apocalypse' by Cassiodorus (c. 580), translated by Francis X. Gumerlock from Latin and published in English for the first time in this volume, served as an introduction to the Book of Revelation for Cassiodorus's students at the Vivarium, a monastery in southern Italy. Cassiodorus divided the Apocalypse into 33 sections, corresponding to the age of Jesus at his Passion, and expressed his belief that John's visions were revelations of the end of the world, including the Second Coming of Christ for judgment, the defeat of the Antichrist, the general resurrection, and the arrival of the heavenly Kingdom. 'Testimonies of Gregory the Great on the Apocalypse,' translated from Latin by Mark DelCogliano and also published here for the first time in English, is a collection of 55 excerpts on the Apocalypse from the writings of St. Gregory the Great (d. 604) compiled by an anonymous author. Drawn mainly from Gregory's 'Moralia,' but also from his 'Book on pastoral care' and homilies, the excerpts, which are arranged from Revelation 1.4 to 22.17, illustrate Gregory's grammatical exegesis of the Apocalypse, his interpretation of various figures in the Apocalypse, and his attempt to reconcile certain passages in the Apocalypse with seemingly contradictory texts from other parts of Scripture. The anonymous 'Greek scholia on the Apocalypse' contains 39 exegetical notes on chapters 1-14 of the Apocalypse, which reveal influences of Origen and Didymus the Blind, among others. The notes provide 'spiritual' interpretations of the various passages and give attention to the interpretation of certain words that appear in the Book of Revelation. This new translation from the Greek by T.C. Schmidt utilizes all the Greek editions. Furthermore, its introductory matter contains updates on the 'Scholia' from the latest scholarship and compares each 'scholion' with interpretations found in various patristic authors, mainly of Alexandrian heritage."-- "This book contains translations of three ancient texts. The first is an explanation of the New Testament Book of Revelation (the Apocalypse) written by the sixth-century (CE) Christian scholar and monastic founder Cassiodorus. The second is a compilation of excerpts from the writings of St. Gregory the Great (died in 604 CE) on the Apocalypse. The original texts of both Cassiodorus and St. Gregory the Great are in Latin. The third text is a compilation of brief excerpts in ancient Greek from ancient writers who can be only tentatively identified on stylistic grounds. The identity of the compiler, too, is unknown. The manuscript of this third text was first discovered in 1911 in northern Greece."--

Abstract

This book explores the transmission of the letters of Leo the Great (pope, 440-461). After setting out the contours of Leo's papacy and the factors contributing to the sending and subsequent transmission of his letters to posterity, it deals in detail with around sixty collections of Leo's letters and over 300 manuscripts ranging in date from the sixth up to the sixteenth century. Each period of the Middle Ages is introduced as the context for collecting and copying the letters, and the relationships between the letter collections themselves are traced. The result is a survey of the impact of Leo the Great upon Latin Christendom, an impact that was felt in theology and canon law, especially from the age of the Emperor Justinian to the Council of Ferrara-Florence, and moving through the major monasteries of Europe from Corbie to Clairvaux. At every cultural Renaissance, Leo was a presence, being copied, rearranged, interpreted, and eventually printed. This book is a testament to the legacy of one of the mid-fifth century's most influential figures

Abstract

"Un homme, une femme. Un chrétien, une juive. Un Africain de langue latine, une Israélienne de langue française. Un représentant des débuts de l’Église cherchant à changer le cours de l’histoire du judaïsme et une chercheuse ayant pour métier d’étudier le judaïsme. Dix-huit siècles entre la mort du premier et la naissance de la seconde. Et quinze années de vie commune. -- "De son dialogue incessant avec Tertullien, Stéphanie É. Binder a retiré un grand nombre d’enseignements, à la fois sur elle-même et sur le monde tel qu’il va. De cet échange fécond par-delà les temps et les lieux, elle a tiré un exemple rare et magnifique d’ego-histoire où la divulgation d’un passé méconnu éclaire la mécompréhension cachée du présent. -- "La Bible, l’Église, la Synagogue, l’histoire, mais aussi et surtout les sciences humaines, la philologie, l’archéologie du savoir et l’actualité brûlante de ce début de xxie siècle : le rapport entre l’objet et le sujet de l’enquête, inévident au départ, qui se veut neutre ensuite, se fait intime au fil des jours et des pages. -- "Cette rencontre improbable nous invite à renouveler notre relation à l’Antiquité et à mobiliser la sagesse des Anciens dans la résolution des problèmes contemporains."
