Abstract

La promesse du christianisme antique, c’est aussi et surtout être capable de transformer tout l’homme et tous les hommes. Pélage fut notamment le maître spirituel des femmes de l’aristocratie romaine. Il met au centre de sa pensée le rôle du libre arbitre, dont Dieu a doué tous les hommes et toutes les femmes. De la sorte, le message chrétien est à même de mobiliser de manière incomparable le potentiel de l’homme et de lui faire accomplir le bien, dans une progression vers une vie sainte. Pélage met à contribution la riche tradition des « ­exercices spirituels­ », tant païenne que chrétienne. Comme l’attestent les six écrits réunis dans le CorpusCaspari, il y avait une réception authentique de la pensée de Pélage dans l’aristocratie romaine, mais la conséquence en fut une radicalisation de la spiritualité pélagienne. Augustin, docteur de la Grâce de Dieu, critique la doctrine psychagogique de Pélage­ : tout en espérant convertir Pélage et lui faire reconnaître son erreur, il aboutit à la construction du « pélagianisme­ » comme hérésie.

Abstract

Contrary to a common conviction, original sin is one of the fundamental Patristic issues, because it is the starting point of Patristic anthropology and sets the stage for the need for salvation.The Church Fathers before Augustine did not used the term "original sin", but described its reality, having the greatest possible feeling for the mystical unity of mankind with its first ancestor. As regards the issue of the unity of human nature in Adam, the East and the West speak with one voice, which is first to be found in Irenaeus' works.

Abstract

Ambrose of Milan is famous above all for his struggle with, and triumph over, 'Arian' heresy. Yet, almost all of the evidence comes from Ambrose's own writings, and from pious historians of the next generation who represented him as a champion of orthodoxy. This detailed study argues instead that an 'Arian' opposition in Milan was largely conjured up by Ambrose himself, lumping together critics and outsiders in order to secure and justify his own authority. Along with new interpretations of Ambrose's election as bishop, his controversies over the faith, and his clashes with the imperial court, this book provides a new understanding of the nature and significance of heretical communities in Late Antiquity. In place of rival congregations inflexibly committed to doctrinal beliefs, it envisages a world of more fluid allegiances in which heresy - but also consensus - could be a matter of deploying the right rhetorical frame.

Abstract

Evagrius Ponticus is regarded by many scholars as the architect of the eastern heresy Origenism, as his theology corresponded to the debates that erupted in 399 and episodically thereafter, culminating in the Second Council of Constantinople in 553 AD. However some scholars now question this conventional interpretation of Evagrius' place in the Origenist controversies. Augustine Casiday sets out to reconstruct Evagrius' theology in its own terms, freeing interpretation of his work from the reputation for heresy that overwhelmed it, and studying his life, writings and evolving legacy in detail. The first part of this book discusses the transmission of Evagrius' writings, and provides a framework of his life for understanding his writing and theology, whilst part two moves to a synthetic study of major themes that emerge from his writings. This book will be an invaluable addition to scholarship on Christian theology, patristics, heresy and ancient philosophy.

Abstract

Die Studie verbindet eine historische Einordnung der von 200 n. Chr. stammenden Verhaltensanweisungen für das tägliche Leben wohlhabender Christen und deren Verfasser mit einer Untersuchung des darin vermittelten Verhältnisses zum Körper: Fern von Leibfeindlichkeit verdeutlichen gesundheitsorientierte Normen die legitime Sorge für den Körper. Dennoch gibt es eine Furcht vor dem Körper, die dessen stete Kontrolle erforderlich macht. Pluspunkte gehört in den aktuell intensiv erforschten Bereich der "Zweiten Sophistik" verbindet historische, philologische, theologische Methoden und Erkenntnisse relevant auch für Medizinhistoriker The author examines the historical context of instructions for the everyday conduct of prosperous Christians and the authors of these instruction manuals from 200 AD and links this examination with a study of attitudes towards the human body as revealed in the instructions. The volume shows how, far from denying the body, the standards relating to health display a legitimate concern for bodily well-being. At the same time, however, there is a fear of the body, which makes it necessary to keep it constantly under control. Key Features it makes a contribution to the intensive research at present being conducted into the "Second Sophistic" it combines historical, philological, and theological methods and insights it is also of relevance for the history of medicine.

Abstract

This volume provides an in-depth analysis of patristic hermeneutics for those who research, teach, or study the early church and the interpretation of Scripture. It focuses exclusively on Latin authors - such as Jerome, Augustine, and Gregory - whose writings contain substantial discussion of hermeneutics and who were known, read, and cited in the Middle Ages and beyond. In this collection of essays, leading international experts in the field identify key passages on patristic hermeneutical theory and demonstrate how the works of these authors have been fundamental for Latin traditions of biblical interpretation. Patristic Theories of Biblical Interpretation offers a selective yet comprehensive guide to a previously understudied area.

Abstract

Ce volume constitue les actes d’un colloque organisé à l’ENS de Lyon (19-20 janvier 2012) pour mettre à l’honneur ce poète oublié, dans des échanges pluridisciplinaires autour de cette œuvre très peu lue en dehors d’un cercle restreint de spécialistes. En réunissant les contributions de philologues, historiens de l’art et historiens des idées, ce volume s’efforce d’enrichir le commentaire des fragments et tente de comprendre les usages que ce poète a faits de la matière mythologique dans une perspective politique ou pour rendre compte du monde dans lequel il évoluait. La première partie de l’ouvrage propose deux parcours géographiques pour donner une idée du traitement du mythe par Euphorion, allant d’abord au sein de la Grèce traditionnelle d’Eubée en Béotie et de l’Attique en Corinthie, puis parcourant l’Asie mineure et le Proche-Orient où Euphorion a fait lui-même une partie de sa carrière. La seconde partie plus littéraire essaie de mettre en lumière certains aspects propres de la poétique d’Euphorion au sein d’un ensemble de poètes qui recherchent l’obscurité, l’étrange ou la rareté et dans l’art spécifique de la malédiction.

Abstract

Eine Neuedition der augustinischen Frühdialoge ist ein Desiderat für alle Forscher/innen, die sich mit der Fortwirkung der paganen literarischen und philosophischen Tradition in der christlichen Spätantike bzw. ihrer Rezeption durch die frühchristlichen Autoren befassen. Innerhalb des umfangreichen Gesamtwerks Augustins sind die drei ersten erhaltenen Schriften Contra Academicos, De beata vita und De ordine von besonderem Interesse, weil hier deutlich wird, wie stark der spätere Bischof und katholische Dogmatiker in der Zeit unmittelbar nach seiner ‚Bekehrung‘ im Jahre 386 antiken Traditionen verpflichtet war. In der abendländischen Literatur- und Geistesgeschichte sind die Dialoge ein Zeugnis für die Transformation der von Cicero geprägten literarischen Formen und der Fragestellungen der hellenistischen Philosophie sowie die Möglichkeiten einer Integration von christlicher und platonischer Lehre. Die Dialoge sind deshalb ein zentraler Gegenstand von Forschung und Lehre der Klassischen Philologie, Philosophie und (Kirchen-)Geschichte. Die Edition bietet erstmals einen nach streng wissenschaftlichen Kriterien und unter angemessener Berücksichtigung des gesamten Handschriftenbestands edierten Text. The three earliest writings of Augustine of Hippo address questions about the Stoic and Skeptical theory of perception, ethics, pagan and Christian theology, and the ancient education program. For the first time, this edition offers a text edited according to stringent scientific criteria that take into account the entire manuscript legacy. It is thus an important working tool for classical philologists, philosophers, and theologians.

Abstract

A comprehensive and authoritative account of the 'heretic' Marcion, this volume traces the development of the concept and language of heresy in the setting of an exploration of second-century Christian intellectual debate. Judith M. Lieu analyses accounts of Marcion by the major early Christian polemicists who shaped the idea of heresy, including Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Epiphanius of Salamis, Clement of Alexandria, Origen, and Ephraem Syrus. She examines Marcion's Gospel, Apostolikon, and Antitheses in detail and compares his principles with those of contemporary Christian and non-Christian thinkers, covering a wide range of controversial issues: the nature of God, the relation of the divine to creation, the person of Jesus, the interpretation of Scripture, the nature of salvation, and the appropriate lifestyle of adherents. In this innovative study, Marcion emerges as a distinctive, creative figure who addressed widespread concerns within second-century Christian diversity.

Abstract

Books 6–10 of Cyril of Alexandria’s (c. 380–444 CE) monumental work of refutation “Against Julian” are being published for the first time in a modern critical edition with an extensive apparatus of sources and parallel texts. In addition, the volume includes all known Greek and Syriac fragments from the lost volumes as well as an extensive introduction to the transmission of the fragments. Die monumentale Widerlegung "Gegen Julian" des Erzbischofs von Alexandrien, Kyrill (ca. 380–444 n.Chr.), zählt zu den wichtigsten Dokumenten für die geistigen Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Heiden und Christen in der Spätantike, einer häufig mit der Gegenwart verglichenen Umbruchzeit. Kyrill unternimmt darin den Versuch, die Argumente, die der vormals selbst christlich erzogene Kaiser Julian (361–363) in seiner angriffigen Streitschrift "Gegen die Galiläer" im Anschluss an frü¬here heidnische Intellektuelle gegen das Christentum vorgebracht hatte und die offensichtlich noch weit über dessen Tod hinaus unter Christen wie Nichtchristen keine geringe Wirkung entfalteten, Punkt für Punkt zu entkräften. Die Bücher 6-10 sowie alle bekannten griechischen und syrischen Fragmente dieser nicht nur für die Rekonstruktion von Julians Schrift "Gegen die Galiläer" fundamentalen Apologie werden hier erstmals in einer modernen kritischen Edition veröffentlicht. Eine ausführliche Einleitung stellt den Stand der Erforschung der komplexen Fragmentenüberlieferung dar.
