The Second Sophistic (50 to 250 BCE) was an intellectual movement throughout the ancient Greek and Roman world. Although it can be characterized as a literary and cultural phenomenon of which rhetoric is an essential component, other themes and values such as peideia, mimesis, the glorification of the past, the importance of Athens, and Greek identity pervade the literature and art of this era. From a workshop held at Universite Laval, Perceptions of the Second Sophistic and its Times brings together fourteen essays and a range of perspectives, including work from scholars in literature, philology, linguistics, history, political science, sociology, and religion. The essays explore the Second Sophistic and describe how the intellectual elites of this period perceived and defined themselves, how they were judged by later authors, and how we understand them today."--Pub. desc.

"Rédigé en 363-364, le traité 'Contre les Manichéens' de Titus de Bostra est la plus importante réfutation chrétienne du manichéisme. Elle se distingue par sa composition en deux volets (réfutation rationnelle et réfutation scripturaire) et par la richesse de sa documentation (on y dénombre près de 150 "citations" manichéennes"). Préservé en grec aux deux-tiers et intégralement dans une version syriaque de la fin du IVe ou du début du du Ve siècle, cet ouvrage capital pour l'histoire du christianisme ancien fait ici l'objet, pour la première fois, d'une édition critique synoptique intégrale des textes grec et syriaque, accompagnée d'une édition critique des extraits préservés en grec dans les 'Sacra Parallela' de Jean Damascène."-- Publisher description.
