Description
Summary:Edited by Lionel R. Wickham and Caroline P. Bammel. Assisted by Erica C. D. Hunter. E.a. C. P. Bammel, Pauline Exegesis... (1-25); G. R. Evans, Augustine's paradoxes... (52-69); B. Studer, Deus Pater... (190-212). A collection of 13 essays offered in dedication to Prof. C.G. Stead. Their theme is the philosophy underlying the presentation of Christian teaching in Late Antiquity. The essays deal with individual theologians (Augustine, Ambrose, Dionysius the Areopagite, Gregory of Nyssa), with ideological background (Christian and Roman universalism), and with the discussion of particular texts. A bibliography and brief appreciation of Prof. Stead's contribution to Patristic studies are included.
