In this treatise (according to its incipit called "I Am Amazed"), Shenoute of Atripe, the famous Coptic archimandrite who died after 451, defends the orthodox doctrine against numerous "heretical" doctrines ranging from Origen and his followers to Arius, gnostic teachers and to Nestorius, his contemporary. Based on the studies of T. Orlandi and St. Emmel, Cristea provides the first edition of all the relevant manuscripts with a German translation of this work which is significant for the history of the church and its doctrine in fifth-century Egypt. The introduction, explanatory notes and extensive indexes will aid the philological and linguistic analysis of the text. In his work, Shenoute incorporated the 16th festal letter of Theophilus of Alexandria, preserved in its entirety in Jerome's translation. A comparison of this Latin version with the Coptic (and the few existing Greek) fragments raises interesting questions concerning both the original and the reception of Theophilus' letter. Schenute von Atripe (gest. nach 451), der berühmte Archimandrit und bedeutendste Autor der koptischen Originalliteratur, verteidigt in diesem Traktat die orthodoxe Lehre gegen eine Vielzahl abweichender Strömungen, die von Origenes über Arius und verschiedene gnostische Lehren bis zu seinem Zeitgenossen Nestorius reichen und nach wie vor die monastische Disziplin und Frömmigkeit bedrohen. Nach der Erstedition durch T. Orlandi und der Zuordnung weiterer Textzeugen (sowie der Ermittlung des Incipit: "I Am Amazed") durch St. Emmel legt Hans-Joachim Cristea hier erstmals eine urkundengetreue Edition aller Handschriften mit deutscher Übersetzung vor. In der Einleitung liegt ein Schwerpunkt auf dem Nachweis der Quellen; die Anmerkungen und die Indizes dienen vor allem der philologischen und linguistischen Erschließung des koptischen Textes. Ein Teil des Werks ist der 16. Osterfestbrief des Theophilus von Alexandria, dessen lateinische Fassung des Hieronymus hier mit der koptischen Version verglichen wird.

Shenoute the Great (c.347-465) led one of the largest Christian monastic communities in late antique Egypt and was the greatest native writer of Coptic in history. For approximately eight decades, Shenoute led a federation of three monasteries and emerged as a Christian leader. His public sermons attracted crowds of clergy, monks, and lay people; he advised military and government officials; he worked to ensure that his followers would be faithful to orthodox Christian teaching; and he vigorously and violently opposed paganism and the oppressive treatment of the poor by the rich. This volume presents in translation a selection of his sermons and other orations. These works grant us access to the theology, rhetoric, moral teachings, spirituality, and social agenda of a powerful Christian leader during a period of great religious and social change in the later Roman Empire.

Shenoute of Atripe: stern abbot, loquacious preacher, patron of the poor and scourge of pagans in fifth-century Egypt. This book studies his numerous Coptic writings and finds them to be the most important literary source for the study of society, economy and religion in late antique Egypt. The issues and concerns Shenoute grappled with on a daily basis, Ariel Lopez argues, were not local problems, unique to one small corner of the ancient world. Rather, they are crucial to interpreting late antiquity as a historical period-rural patronage, religious intolerance, the Christian care of the poor and the local impact of the late Roman state. His little known writings provide us not only with a rare opportunity to see the life of a holy man as he himself saw it, but also with a privileged window into his world. Lopez brings Shenoute to prominence as witness of and participant in the major transformations of his time.
