Revisioning John Chrysostom: New Approaches, New Perspectives: Critical Approaches to Early Christianity, cartea 1

Editat de Chris de Wet, Wendy Mayer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 mar 2019
In Revisioning John Chrysostom, Chris de Wet and Wendy Mayer harness and promote a new wave of scholarship on the life and works of this famous late-antique (c. 350-407 CE) preacher. New theories from the cognitive and neurosciences, cultural and sleep studies, and history of the emotions, among others, meld with reconsideration of lapsed approaches – his debt to Graeco-Roman paideia, philosophy, and now medicine – resulting in sometimes surprising and challenging conclusions. Together the chapters produce a fresh vision of John Chrysostom that moves beyond the often negative views of the 20th century and open up substantially new vistas for exploration.

Recenzii

'The volume is a valuable research tool, as it also provides detailed footnotes and bibliographies for each essay. And the appendices include a bibliography of ancient sources as well as of John Chrysostom’s works, followed by a useful index of ancient sources and a general index. The volume belongs in research libraries.[...] Revisioning John Chrysostom sets a vast and abundant table before us. The breadth of generations, its remarkable scope, and diverse methodologies enrich this volume. The editors and contributors are to be commended for conveying so richly the relevance of Chrysostom’s works across disciplines, centuries, and continents.'

This volume will pave the way for studies on Chrysostom for years to come and can be recommended for all interested in a refreshing take on the study of late antiquity, the integration of modern theory and the study of historical texts, and the use of sermons as sources for pre-modern history.
