Cyprian the Bishop de J. Patout Burns Jr.

Cyprian the Bishop

Autor J. Patout Burns Jr.
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 noi 2001
This is the first up-to-date, accessible study on the rule of Cyprian as the Bishop of Carthage in the 250s AD. It controversially shows that Cyprian radically enforced the primary emphasis on the unity of the church, interpreting loyalty in the community as fidelity to Christ.
It uses cultural anthropology to examine the impact of Cyprian's policy during the Decian persecution. Cyprian attempted to steer the middle ground between compromise and traditionalism and succeeded by defining the boundary between the empire and the church.
J. Patout Burns Jr. concentrates on social structures to reveal the logic of Cyprian's plan, the basis for its success in his time, and why it later failed. This book will be of great interest to classicists, ancient historians and sociologists as well as theologians.

Recenzii

'This study is easily readable. This will make it valuable for students, who will no doubt also appreciate the sober balance of theory and exposition ... the book is ideally suited to an advanced undergraduate course. Burn's work is thoroughly commendable, and the study is recommended without hesitation.' - Augustine Casiday, Reviews in Religion and Theology
'A large part of what makes this book impressive - indeed, of what makes so many of Burns' arguments compelling - is Burns' obvious familiarity with Cyprian's corpus operum. That Burns has dedicated a significant portion of his professional life to the study of Cyprian is something that is evidenced on almost every page and in more than a few of the copious footnotes ... In sum, this book is to be recommended.' - Ephemerides Theologicae Loranieases

'The book is well-written and refreshingly candid about Cyprian's views, without ever seeking to belittle them. It will probably be the standard introduction to his thought for some time to come, and will help to shape the next generation's perception of the important legacy of the North African church.' -Churchman
