Irenaeus On Creation - The Cosmic Christ And The Saga Of Redemption

de Matthew Steenberg

230,55€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Scholarship on Irenaeus has long acknowledged the centrality of creation to his theology, yet without fitting this theme securely into the Christological vision of Christ the 'Recapitulator'. Studies have considered elements of Irenaeus' cosmology and anthropology in extraction; but without seeing creation as an intrinsic part of his Christocentric vision, these have only partially been able to capture the intricacy and significance of his embrace of the creation saga. Drawing on the most recent Irenaean scholarship, the present volume explores in detail the Christocentric cosmology of one of the second century's greatest writers, setting him in the context of the theological currents of his day. The result is a volume that offers new insights into the trinitarian articulation of early Christianity, the full significance of humanity as bearing God's 'image', and a fuller reading of the details behind the title, 'Irenaeus the creationist'.

Origen: Philosophy Of History & Eschatology

de Panayiotis Tzamalikos

382,93€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 A common accusation made against Origen is that he dissolves history into intellectual abstraction and that his eschatology (if this is recognized at all) is notoriously obscure. In this new work, the author draws on an impressive range of bibliography to consider Origen's Philosophy of History and Eschatology in the widest context of facts, documents and streams of thought, including Classical and Late Antiquity Greek Philosophy, Gnosticism, Hebraism and Patristic Thought, both before Origen and well after his death. Against claims that he causes history to evaporate into barren idealism, his thought is shown to be firmly grounded on his particular vision of historical occurences. Confronting assertions that Origen has no eschatological ideas, his eschatology is shown rather to have made a distinctive mark throughout his works, both explicitly and tacitly.In Origen's view, history was the foundation of scriptural interpretation, a teleological process determined by factors and functions such as providence - prophecy - promise - expectation - realization - anticipation - faith - anticipation - hope - awaiting for - fulfilment - end. Since 1986, the author has argued for the unpopular thesis that Origen is, in many respects, an anti-Platonist. Nevertheless, the author casts light upon the Aristotelian rationale of Origen's doctrine of apokatastasis, arguing that its validity is bolstered by ontological rather than historical premises. The extent of Origen's influence upon what is currently regarded as 'orthodoxy' turns out to be far wider and more profound than has hitherto been acknowledged.

Esoteric Teaching In The Stromateis Of Clement Of Alexandria

de Andrew Itter

230,55€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Stromateis of Clement of Alexandria (c.150-215 CE) has received much scholarly debate over whether it can be accorded the role of the third and highest phase of his pedagogy. This was a treatise that promised an account of the true philosophy of Christ set down for Christians seeking higher knowledge of doctrine. This book takes a new approach to deciphering the nature and purpose of these enigmatic books concentrating on the close relationship between method and doctrine, and the number and sequence of the texts as they have come down to us. The outcome is a concise summary of current scholarship on Clement's method and a fresh picture of how he applies it to the transmission of esoteric doctrines.

God In Early Christian Thought - Essays In Memory Of Lloyd G. Patterson

303,43€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 While the diversity of early Christian thought and practice is now generally assumed, and the experiences and beliefs of Christians beyond the works of great theologians increasingly valued, the question of God is perennial and fundamental. These essays, individually modest in scope, seek to address that largest of questions using particular issues and problems, or single thinkers and distinct texts. They include studies of doctrine and theology as traditionally conceived, but also of understandings of God among the early Christians that emerge from study of liturgy, art, and asceticism, and in relation to the social order and to nature itself.

Poetry And Exegesis In Premodern Latin Christianity - The Encounter Between Classical And Christian Strategies Of Interpretation

310,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This volume investigates various exegetical possibilities in Christian Latin poetry during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. In the Latin West poetry was mainly associated with the powerful pagan tradition of writers like Vergil and Ovid, and by many poetry was considered to tell lies and provide mere entertainment potentially corrupting the soul. Therefore, Christians initially had reservations about this genre and believed it to be incompatible with Christian worship, literacy and intellectual activity. In practice, however, forms of specifically Christian poetry developed from the end of the third century onwards; theoretical reconciliations were developed around 400 A.D. This collection examines specimens of Christian poetry from Juvencus (the first biblical epicist shortly after 300) up to the thirteenth century. Its particular usefulness lies in the combination of literary theory and hermeneutics, close readings of the texts and new readings on a sound philological basis.

Die Wurde Des Menschen - Ein Beitrag Zur Anthropologie In Der Alten Kirche

de Ulrich Volp

356,43€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 There can be no doubt that there is a link between early Christian statements on human dignity and the corresponding modern concept, as it appears ever more frequently in current bioethical debates. This study attempts to throw light on the surprisingly complex process of the emergence of such a Christian concept of human dignity in antiquity and portrays it as a process governed by contradictions and antagonisms: between biblical and platonic anthropology; between a platonic and a stoic perception of humanity; between gnostic and antignostic cosmology; between biblically based criticism of human culture on the one hand and heilsgeschichtlichem cultural optimism on the other hand; between Greek and Roman thinking. This history of the idea of the "dignity of man" is being recounted taking into consideration the complex matrix of Christian theory and practice (including issues such as worship, contraception and abortion), piety and theological reflection, ethics, liturgy and theological as well as cutural anthropology. *** Bei dieser Studie handelt es sich um den Versuch einer zusammenfassenden Darstellung der christlich-antiken Auseinandersetzung mit der Wurde des menschlichen Lebens Diese wird nicht nur gegenwartig etwa in der Bioethik wieder kontrovers diskutiert, sondern ist auch in der Antike ein Feld philosophischer und theologischer Uberlegungen gewesen. Volp fragt, inwieweit sich in den Schriften der antiken christlichen Denker die Vorstellung einer mit einer besonderen Wurde ausgestatteten gemein-menschlichen Natur findet, die Menschen von Tieren und von belebter und unbelebter Materie unterscheidet, und wie diese Natur gefat und begrundet wird. Ausgehend von der These, da diese Uberlegungen nicht nur Auswirkungen auf die ethische und religiose Praxis der Alten Kirche hatten, sondern umgekehrt auch entscheidend von ihr gepragt wurden, konzentriert sich die Arbeit nicht nur auf die theoretischen Auerungen der Kirchenvater, sondern bezieht ethische Konkretionen (Schwangerschaftsabbruch, Umgang mit Menschen mit Behinderungen, Krieg) und den christlichen Kult mit in die Untersuchung ein. Zum Vorschein kommt ein uberraschend komplexes Bild einer alles andere als selbstverstandlichen geistesgeschichtlichen Entwicklung, deren Folgen bis in die heutige Zeit nachwirken.

Martyrs Maccabees: De L'Histoire Juive Au Culte Chretien - Les Homelies De Gregoire De Nazianze Et De Jean Chrysostome

de Raphaelle Ziade

363,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Maccabean Martyrs, Jewish heroes from the era of the persecution of Antiochus IV Epiphanes, were incorporated into the IVth century Christian martyrology. Two Church Fathers, Gregory Nazianzen and John Chrysostom wrote panegyrics in their honour, which are studied and translated in this book. The first part shows how, since the beginning, the Church referred to these martyrs as biblical examples known through 2 and 4 Maccabees. The second part describes, through the eulogies of Gregory and John, the circumstances surrounding the creation of the Christian Feast. The third part analyzes the preaching built around the story of the Maccabean martyrs, where, following the 4 M model, Eleazar, the seven brothers and their mother are established as examples of virtue and asceticism for the edification of all Christians.The book investigates an original aspect of the cult of martyrs : the christianisation of jewish martyrs killed defending the Law, and sheds light on the sometimes contradictory preaching choices of Gregory and John to respond to the jewish roots of this cult. ***Les martyrs Maccabees, heros juifs de la persecution d'Antiochus IV Epiphane, furent integres dans le martyrologe chretien au IVe siecle. A la meme epoque, en Orient, deux Peres de l'Eglise, Gregoire de Nazianze et Jean Chrysostome, ont prononce des discours panegyriques en leur honneur, etudies et traduits dans ce livre.La premiere partie montre comment, depuis l'origine, l'Eglise citait comme exemples bibliques ces martyrs connus par le Deuxieme et le Quatrieme livre des Maccabees. La deuxieme partie decrit, au travers des panegyriques de Gregoire et de Jean, les circonstances qui ont marque l'instauration de la fete chretienne dediee a ces martyrs. La troisieme partie analyse la predication adressee aux fideles a partir de l'episode maccabeen, Eleazar, les sept freres et leur Mere devenant, sur le modele de 4 M, des exemples de vertus et d'ascese proposes a l'imitation de tous. Le livre explore ainsi un aspect original du culte des martyrs, la christianisation de martyrs juifs morts pour la defense de la Loi, et met en lumiere les choix de predication, parfois opposes, de Gregoire et de Jean face a l'enracinement juif de ce culte.

Descriptions Monumentales Et Discours Sur L'Edification Chez Paulin De Nole - Le Regard Et La Lumiere (Epist. 32 Et Carm. 27 Et 28)

433,28€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Pontius Meropius Paulinus (ca 353-431), one of the greatest poets of Late Latin Poetry and author of an important correspondence, was born in a wealthy family of the Gallo-Roman aristocracy in Bordeaux. After his spectacular conversion to asceticism and his sacerdotal ordination, he set up definitively as a monk in Italy, in Campanian Nola besides the tomb of St. Felix.There, Paulinus devoted his considerable fortune to the restructuring of the monumental complex which has appeared around this holy place, since the early years of the fourth century and mainly a church. This book is a literary and spiritual study of the description of this complex (carm. 27 and 28 and epist. 32), an other way of edification (the edification of the soul in temple for her creator.) A careful comparison with archaeological testimonies must help estimate the status of Paulinus'monumental descriptions. ***Pontius Meropius Paulinus (vers 353-431), un des plus grands poetes de l'Antiquite tardive, auteur d'une importante correspondance, est issu d'une riche famille de l'aristocratie bordelaise.

Monastic School Of Gaza

de Aryeh Kofsky e Brouria Bitton-Ashkelony

241,15€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book studies one of the most striking chapters in the history of late antique monastic culture, provided by the monastic legacy of Gaza. A monastic intellectual community flourished in the region of Gaza from the fourth to the seventh century, producing a wealth of literary works. In this diverse and exciting literary corpus-especially in the unique correspondence between spiritual leaders and their clientele-matters that are usually only hinted at in monastic sources, are vividly portrayed. Distinct from the dry and matter-of-fact monastic instructions and the stereotypes of hagiography, this corpus exposes the psychological tensions, moods, frustrations, and elations in the daily existence of the monks, revealing them as creatures of flesh and blood. This book seeks to frame the historical development of this community and endeavours to analyze the spiritual and intellectual context of what may be termed the monastic school of Gaza. The legacy of this complex and thriving centre cuts across theological differences and boundaries. Shedding light on these neglected educated circles enhances and somewhat balances the overall historical picture of late antique ascetic culture and Palestinian Christianity.

Typologie Spatio-Temporelle De L'Ecclesia Byzantine - La Mystagogie De Maxime Le Confesseur Dans La Culture Philosophique De L'Antiquite Tardive

de Pascal Mueller-Jourdan

237,18€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This study addresses the philosophical context of the Mystagogy of Maximus the Confessor. It examines how the Byzantine monk integrates Neoplatonist topics when exposing one of the most important feature of his religious conception of the physical world or cosmology.The volume contains three chapters. The first one compares the purpose of the Mystagogy and the program of the philosophical training in late Antiquity. The second consists of two parts : (1) study of the use of the Aristotelian categories of 'when' and 'where' in the 'Ambiguum 10' of Maximus in order to analyse the status of ecclesiastical architecture and the nature of the liturgical 'synaxis' of the church (chapter 3); (2) study of the development of the categories of space and time in the works of the Neoplatonist Greek commentators of Plato and Aristotle such as Jamblichus, Proclus, Simplicius and Damascius. The third chapter offers the first extended examination of the metaphysical status of the 'ecclesia' and its dynamic activity compared to the metaphysical status of space and time required for the explanation of the Neoplatonist physical world system. Henceforth, the 'ecclesia' of the Mystagogy can be considered as the type of the providential action of God.This book provides many important new perspectives for reading the works of Maximus the Confessor, especially the Mystagogy, not only for theologians, but also for scholars interested in late Antique and Byzantine philosophy.Cette etude, consacree au contexte philosophique de la Mystagogie de Maxime le Confesseur, examine comment le moine byzantin integre certains concepts tires du Neoplatonisme quand il expose les plus importantes lignes de sa conception religieuse du monde physique. Ce volume contient trois chapitres. Le premier compare l'objectif de la Mystagogie et le programme philosophique des ecoles de l'Antiquite tardive.Le second comporte deux parties : (1) une etude de l'emploi des categories 'quand' et 'ou' dans l'Ambiguum 10' de Maxime avec pour objectif l'analyse du statut de l'architecture ecclesiale et l'analyse de la nature de la synaxe liturgique (chapitre 3); (2) une etude du developpement des categories de lieu et de temps dans les Oeuvres des Commentateurs neoplatoniciens de Platon et d'Aristote, tels Jamblique, Proclus, Simplicius et Damascius. Le troisieme chapitre offre la premiere etude approfondie du statut metaphysique et dynamique de l'ecclesia compare au statut metaphysique du lieu et du temps requis par l'explication neoplatonicienne du monde physique.L'ecclesia de la Mystagogie sera ainsi consideree comme le type de l'action providentielle de Dieu dans le monde cree. Ce livre fournit une nouvelle perspective de lecture des Oeuvres de Maxime le Confesseur et devrait interesser tant les theologiens que les scientifiques consacrant leurs travaux a l'Antiquite tardive et a la philosophie byzantine.

Decretale Ad Gallos Episcopos: Son Texte Et Son Auteur - Texte Critique, Traduction Francaise Et Commentaire

de Yves-Marie Duval

204,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In 1904, Ed.-Ch. Babut issued a new edition of the important Decretale Ad Gallos episcopos with the help of a second manuscript of the canonical "collection of St. Maur". He attributed it to Pope Damasus (366-384), and not to Sirice (384-398). Nevertheless, he did ignore the existence of the ancestor of the two previous manuscripts and of an other collection, materialized today by two fragmented manuscripts. This new edition of the Decretale is updated with the help of all the existing traditions and brings significant improvements.The attribution to Damasus, discussed throughout the 20th century is here confirmed through another method than Babut's. The survey of the content, the texts of the holy scripture used, and argumentation make possible the identification of the influence of Jerome who was the secretary of Damasus in 382-384. He was the only man using specific bible texts or specific expressions present in this Decretale.In spite of his wish to base all his decisions upon the Scripture and upon the Fathers' tradition (Nicee-Sardique), we discover in this decretale, focused essentially on the life of the blessed virgins and on the hiring process and life of the church, the strong assessment of the power of the "Sedes apostolica" and also of the necessity of a discipline policy, designed by the Church of Rome.

Reincarnation In Clement Of Alexandria - Salvific Cycles And Steps Of Progress

de Sami Yli-Karjanmaa

~~0,01€~~ 0,01€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 International scholarly consensus holds that despite his obvious Platonic affinities, Clement of Alexandria (ca. 150-215 CE) rejected the doctrine of reincarnation. This study finds that this consensus does not do justice to what Clement actually writes. In his most explicit statement, Clement singles out reincarnation as the example he wants to give of the finest doctrines of the best philosophers. Though most of Clement's other writing is more subtle than that, endorsement is still the most plausible explanation of what he says. The tenet - clearly esoteric for Clement - is in harmony with his anthropology, ethics, and his synergistic soteriology that includes the crucial role of Jesus.

The reader will discover Origen the teacher applying the critical tools of his time in order to cultivate the Christian reader in purity of heart.

 This book is a collection of studies initially presented at the Third International Conference on Clement of Alexandria, which was focused on the Paedagogus. Although on the surface the Paedagogus seems to be more easily accessible than Clement's lengthier Stromateis or his fragmentary Excerpta ex Theodoto, the studies show that a profound theological undercurrent runs through the three books of the Paedagogus - the first focusing on the Logos, and the other two on ethics. Contributors: Emanuela Prinzivalli, Veronika Hrusova, Miklos Gyurkovics, Edward Creedy, Marco Rizzi, Annewies van den Hoek, Vit Husek, Leon-Ferdinand Karuhije, Lenka Karfikova, Ilaria L.E.

 In this book, Dominus legem dat, labeled the most debated motif in early Christian art, is dealt with in all its different contexts, particularly Roman sarcophagi, where it most often occurs. In light of concurrent Roman funerary art, it offers a new understanding of the function of biblical motifs on sarcophagi, and a number of contemporary Christian texts are presented as a key for the interpretation of the so-called "traditio legis" composition. This first, richly illustrated monograph on the motif argues that it originated in Old St. Peter's Basilica, substantiated by a broad discussion of its historical and theological context. A catalog of all occurrences is included.

Augustine'S Confessions: Ten Studies

~~186,83€~~ 168,15€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book presents new interpretations of essential and well-known passages from Augustine's Confessions. In ten chapters, Augustinian specialist Johannes van Oort analyzes and explains many essential passages in the work from the background of Augustine's thorough knowledge of Manichaeism. This 'Gnostic' variant of Christianity exerted a great influence on the North African Augustine, as evidenced in his most famous and (arguably) most influential work. In a new light appear such figures as Monnica, Ponticianus, Lady Continence, the rather obscure African bishop who speaks of Augustine as "a son of such tears"; events such as the 'illustrious' pear theft, the coming of "a glorious young man" to dreaming Monnica, Augustine's dramatic conversion; basic features such as his concept of 'God', deep sense of (sexual) sin, highly influential reflections on memory, fundamental view of Christ as God's Right Hand and, perhaps most importantly, his mystical spirituality.

Imagining The Death Of Jesus In Fourth-Century Mesopotamia - A Study Of Ephrem Of Nisibis

de Blake Hartung

177,55€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In this volume Blake Hartung explores the place of the passion and death of Jesus in the writings of Ephrem of Nisibis (ca. 307-373). The book argues that the genre of Ephrem's works (usually short poems for public performance), is key to understanding his unsystematic approach. Ephrem drew widely upon the Passion narratives and traditional motifs related to Christ's death and deployed them differently in distinct settings. Each chapter explores a key theme in Ephrem's discourse about the death of Christ in context (including anti-Judaism, the defeat of death, and economic imagery). Ultimately, Hartung urges further consideration of the role of Christ's death in early Christian thought and practice beyond the traditional confines of atonement theology.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Hexaemeron of Anastasius of Sinai (late 7th-early 8th c.) expounds the creation account and the Adam and Eve story as foreshadowing the mystery of Christ and the Church, an idea that goes back to Origen and beyond. The commentary remained unpublished in Greek until 2007, received only scattered attention, and has been often considered as apocryphal. In this book, the first of its kind in any language, Dimitrios Zaganas firmly establishes its authenticity, investigates its genesis and date, offers detailed analysis of its numerous sources, and studies its distinctly allegorical approach to Genesis 1-3. Several emendations of the Greek text are suggested in the appendix. L'Hexaemeron d'Anastase le Sinaite (fin VIIe-debut VIIIe s.) traite du recit de la creation et de l'histoire d'Adam et Eve comme prefigurant le mystere du Christ et de l'Eglise, une idee qui remonte a Origene et au-dela. Le commentaire est reste inedit en grec jusqu'en 2007, n'a recu qu'une attention distraite et a ete souvent considere comme apocryphe.

 In Das theologische Profil des Julian von Toledo analysiert Stefan Pabst das Leben und Wirken des westgotischen Bischofs Julian von Toledo (ca. 642-690). Im Anschluss an eine Hinfuhrung zum historischen Umfeld und zur Biographie des Julian werden samtliche erhaltene Schriften untersucht. Dies betrifft sowohl die nicht-theologischen als auch die theologischen Werke. Im Zentrum der Analyse steht einerseits die Frage nach der Originalitat des Autors. Julian zitiert namlich intensiv aus den Schriften der Kirchenvater, insbesondere des Augustinus. Andererseits werden die Zielgruppe und die Intention jeder einzelnen Schrift eingehend betrachtet. Abschlieend wird so ein theologisches Profil des Julian von Toledo entwickelt, das ihn als einen patristischen, einen padagogisch-pastoralen und damit als einen spezifisch westgotischen Theologen prasentiert. In Das theologische Profil des Julian von Toledo Stefan Pabst analyses the life and work of the Visigothic bishop Julian of Toledo (ca. 642-690). After a presentation of Julian's historical environment and biography, all preserved writings are analysed in detail. This includes his non-theological as well as his theological works. While, on the one hand, the analysis focusses on the question of the author's originality, for Julian quotes extensively from the works of the Church Fathers, Augustine in particular, on the other hand, the author's addressed audience and the intention of each individual writing are considered in detail as well. As conclusion, Julian's profile as theologian is presented: He is a patristic and pedagogical-pastoral theologian and thus a specifically Visigothic theologian.

Christian Teachers In Second-Century Rome - Schools And Students In The Ancient City

221,28€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Essays in Christian Teachers in Second-Century Rome situate Christian teachers in the social and intellectual context of the Roman urban environment. The teaching and textual work of well-known figures such as Marcion, Justin, Valentinus, and Tatian are discussed, as well as lesser-known and appreciated figures such as Theodotus the Cobbler. Authors probe material and visual evidence on teachers and teaching activity, adopting different theoretical perspectives that go beyond the traditional "church - school" dichotomy: comparative looks at physicians, philosophers and other textual experts; at synagogues, shops and other sites where students gathered around religious entrepreneurs. Taken as a whole, the volume makes a strong case for the sheer diversity of Christian teaching activity in second-century Rome.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In his commentary on Gregory of Nyssa's Adversus Macedonianos, Piet Hein Hupsch highlights the carefully composed structure of this work and the important connection between its theological, rhetorical and stylistic elements. In his capacity of arbiter fidei, which was bestowed upon him by the Council of Constantinople in 381, Bishop Gregory wrote this circular letter in the form of a counteraccusation against the Pneumatomachi, developing his Trinitarian theology of adoration in which the Spirit occupies a central role. In a systematic-theological synthesis of this work, Hupsch shows how the Spirit draws baptised human beings and human language into the relatio of the three divine persons, the dynamic circle of divine glory of which the Spirit is the personification.

 In Jewish, Christian, and Classical Exegetical Traditions in Jerome's Translation of the Book of Exodus: Translation Technique and the Vulgate, Matthew Kraus offers a layered understanding of Jerome's translation of biblical narrative, poetry, and law from Hebrew to Latin. Usually seen as a tool for textual criticism, when read as a work of literature, the Vulgate reflects a Late Antique conception of Hebrew grammar, critical use of Greek biblical traditions, rabbinic influence, Christian interpretation, and Classical style and motifs. Instead of typically treating the text of the Vulgate and Jerome himself separately, Matthew Kraus uncovers Late Antiquity in the many facets of the translator at work-grammarian, biblical exegete, Septuagint scholar, Christian intellectual, rabbinic correspondent, and devotee of Classical literature.

Clement'S Biblical Exegesis - Proceedings Of The Second Colloquium On Clement Of Alexandria (Olomouc, May 29-31, 2014)

246,45€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In Clement's Biblical Exegesis scholars from six countries explore various facets of Clement of Alexandria's hermeneutical theory and his exegetical practice. Although research on Clement has tended to emphasize his use of philosophical sources, Clement was important not only as a Christian philosopher, but also as a pioneer Christian exegete. His works constitute a crucial link in the tradition of Alexandrian exegesis, but his biblical exegesis has received much less attention than that of Philo or Origen. Topics discussed include how Clement's methods of allegorical interpretation compare with those of Philo, Origen, and pagan exegetes of Homer, and his readings of particular texts such as Proverbs, the Sermon on the Mount, John 1, 1 John, and the Pauline letters.
