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, natural disasters, religious disputes and religious violence, social abuses and the breakdown of the structures of dependence. Individual case-studies of episcopal management are provided for each of these categories. This is the first comprehensive treatment of crisis management in the late-antique world, and the first survey of episcopal letter-writing across the later Roman empire.

Die Beiträge Bandes wollen mit kritischen Rückfragen in aktuellen Diskussionen um die Person und die Briefe des Ignatios von Antiochia pointiert Stellung beziehen und neue Perspektiven und Fragestellungen vorstellen. Verhandelt wird nicht nur die klassische, die Ignatios-Forschung bis heute dominierende Frage, ob die Briefe tatsächlich auf einen Märtyrerbischof der frühen 2. Jahrhunderts zurückgehen. Erprobt werden vielmehr vor allem neue Theorien und Modelle im Blick auf die Funktion und einen möglichen kultur- und theologiegeschichtlichen Ort der Briefe. Gängige Annahmen werden einer Überprüfung unterzogen, um deutlich zu machen, dass hinsichtlich der Beziehung der Briefe zu anderen frühchristlichen Schriften, zu kirchlichen Entwicklungen und theologischen Vorstellungen der Zeit Differenzierungen und Korrekturen nötig sind. Dies schließt Überlegungen zu Modifikationen der konventionellen Briefform und zur brieflichen und literarischen Kommunikation, aber auch zur komplexen Überlieferungsgeschichte des Corpus Ignatianum ein. Ziel des Bandes und der einzelnen Beiträge ist nicht die Lösung aller offenen Fragen und Kontroversen der Forschung, sondern die Anregung, bei der Beschäftigung mit den Briefen neue Optionen und Methoden einzubeziehen.

Winfried Romberg führt mit dem Band Die Würzburger Bischöfe von 1617 bis 1684 die Bischofsreihe fort, die Alfred Wendehorst begonnen hat (Germania Sacra Neue Folge 1/4/13). Damit erscheint ein Band, der in besonderer Weise für den Schwerpunkt der Dritten Folge der Germania Sacra steht: Die Darstellung von Diözesen und Domkapiteln der Kirche des Alten Reiches. Er beleuchtet die Lebensläufe und Amtstätigkeiten neuzeitlicher Würzburger Bischöfe des 17. Jahrhunderts und umfasst die Pontifikate von Johann Gottfried I. von Aschhausen (1617-1622) bis zum Pontifikat von Konrad Wilhelm von Wernau (1683-1684). Die Bischöfe dieser Zeit waren von überregionaler Bedeutung und Wirksamkeit, wie sich beispielhaft in der Person des Bischofs Johann Philipp I. von Schönborn (1642-1673) zeigt, der zugleich Erzbischof von Mainz war. Johann Gottfried I. von Aschhausen, Franz von Hatzfeld und Peter Philipp von Dernbach waren Bischöfe von Würzburg und Bamberg in Personalunion, womit sich der Band auch an die Darstellung der Bamberger Bischofsreihe von 1522 bis 1693 von Dieter J. Weiß (Germania Sacra Neue Folge 38) anschließt. Die Viten, die das Wirken des einzelnen Bischofs in seinem Amt in den Vordergrund stellen, bewegen sich im geschichtsträchtigen Umfeld von Rekatholisierung, Dreißigjährigem Krieg und Frühabsolutismus.

In Jerome and the Monastic Clergy , Andrew Cain provides the first full-scale commentary on the famous Letter to Nepotian, in which Jerome articulates his radical plan for imposing a strict ascetic code of conduct on the contemporary clergy. Cain comprehensively addresses stylistic, literary, historical, text-critical and other issues of interpretive interest. Accompanying the commentary is an introduction which situates the Letter in the broader context of its author’s life and work and exposes its fundamental propagandistic dimensions. The revised critical Latin text and the new facing-page translation will make the Letter more accessible than ever before and will provide a reliable textual apparatus for future scholarship on this key writing by one of the most prolific authors in Latin antiquity.

The figure of Guðmundr Arason (1161-1237) and especially his role in the history of medieval Iceland has provoked many strong opinions for decades. This book uses a variety of extant written sources to reexamine those views. It discusses a discrepancy between the popularity of the saint as suggested by the sagas and that reflected by other sources. One of the study’s main claims suggests that the clergy from Northern Iceland had a vital impact upon the construction of the cult. A variety of means applied to achieve it demonstrate the authorial knowledge of the vernacular and international traditions, as well as of living conditions in Iceland at the time when the sources were put down in writing.
