Abstract

Seit sich in jüngerer Zeit Zweifel an der Existenz eines von Dtn–2 Kön reichenden Geschichtswerkes regen, werden die Weichen für die Entstehung des Enneateuch vermehrt im Richterbuch gestellt. Betrachtet man dabei die Rettererzählungen in Ri 2,6–16,31* als redaktionelles Scharnier zwischen dem Hexateuch und der Sam-Kön-Komposition, bleibt die Frage nach dem literargeschichtlichen Ort der letzten fünf Kapitel des Richterbuches unbeantwortet.Die Studie rekonstruiert die Entstehungsgeschichte dieses exegetisch bislang wenig beachteten Textbereichs und fragt anschließend nach seinem kompositionsgeschichtlichen Ort innerhalb des Richterbuchs und innerhalb des Enneateuchs. Dabei zeigt sich, dass Ri 17–21 weder in literar- noch in theologiegeschichtlicher Hinsicht „Anhänge" zum Richterbuch darstellen. There has been little previous exegetical examination of the so-called appendices to the Book of Judges (Judg. 17–21). Using a meticulous edition historical approach, the study casts new light on the composition of these chapters and on the Book of Judges as a whole.

Abstract

A study of how asceticism was promoted through Biblical interpretation, Reading Renunciation uses contemporary literary theory to unravel the writing strategies of the early Christian authors. Not a general discussion of early Christian teachings on celibacy and marriage, the book is a close examination, in the author's words, of how "the Fathers' axiology of abstinence informed their interpretation of Scriptural texts and incited the production of ascetic meaning." Elizabeth Clark begins with a survey of scholarship concerning early Christian asceticism that is designed to orient the nonspecialist. Section Two is organized around potentially troubling issues posed by Old Testament texts that demanded skillful handling by ascetically inclined Christian exegetes. The third section, "Reading Paul," focuses on the hermeneutical problems raised by I Corinthians 7, and the Deutero-Pauline and Pastoral Epistles. Elizabeth Clark's remarkable work will be of interest to scholars of late antiquity, religion, literary theory, and history.

Abstract

Around the turn of the fifth century, Christian theologians and churchmen contested each other's orthodoxy and good repute by hurling charges of "Origenism" at their opponents. And although orthodoxy was more narrowly defined by that era than during Origen's lifetime in the third century, his speculative, Platonizing theology was not the only issue at stake in the Origenist controversy: "Origen" became a code word for nontheological complaints as well. Elizabeth Clark explores the theological and extra-theological implications of the dispute, uses social network analysis to explain the personal alliances and enmities of its participants, and suggests how it prefigured modern concerns with the status of representation, the social construction of the body, and praxis vis--vis theory. Shaped by the Trinitarian and ascetic debates, and later to influence clashes between Augustine and the Pelagians, the Origenist controversy intersected with patristic campaigns against pagan "idolatry" and Manichean and astrological determinism. Discussing Evagrius Ponticus, Epiphanius, Theophilus, Jerome, Shenute, and Rufinus in turn, Clark concludes by showing how Augustine's theory of original sin reconstructed the Origenist theory of the soul's pre-existence and "fall" into the body.Originally published in 1992.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
