Recenzii
Eusebius of Caesarea is best known for his history of the early church, but this thought-provoking and original book reveals his surprising influence on Christian reading practices—in late antiquity and beyond. Coogan's considerable research will be a boon to historians and literary scholars alike.
In this remarkable study, Coogan directs a powerful combination of theoretical tools at Eusebius' Gospel apparatus, revealing how it rereads and, importantly, rewrites the canonical Gospels. As important as the specific reading of Eusebius is, Coogan's insights into the power of paratext will be valuable for scholars across languages, genres, and time periods.
This is a brilliant addition to the blossoming scholarship on Eusebius, the Canon Tables, and to the Reading and Writing Cultures in Antiquity that would be of interest to Classicists and early Christianity scholars alike.
The monograph is an excellent in-depth study of the reading innovations effectuated by Eusebius' Canons. This is a brilliant addition to the blossoming scholarship on Eusebius, the Canon Tables, and to the Reading and Writing Cultures in Antiquity that would be of interest to Classicists and early Christianity scholars alike.
Coogan is absolutely right that most studies of the Gospels do not understand or are ignorant of the potential value of Eusbeius's innovative technologies for Gospel reading. While the canons/tables are in the preface to the Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament, I confess that their usage and significance has remained opaque and largely unexplained to me. Coogan's excellently argued and clearly written study can go a long way toward remedying my (and others, should they share them) deficiencies in this area.
This book and its outstanding bibliography prepare the way for those willing to take up the task.
This deeply researched study of the Eusebian canons is an outstanding contribution to the contemporary turn to the material and technological dimensions of Gospel manuscript tradition and the corresponding reading practices.
A valuable resource for the scholar desiring to study the significance of the literary technology standing at the head of their critical Greek NT, and the book is generative for readers desiring to watch the chimeric line between the composition and reception of sacred text.
