Abstract

Die Epistula ad Afros, ein Schreiben an die Bischöfe der Diözese Africa, das wahrscheinlich um 366/67 abgefasst wurde, ist ein wichtiges Zeugnis für die theologische Position des Athanasius in der bisher wenig beachteten Zeit nach der Rückkehr aus seinem letzten Exil. In Auseinandersetzung mit der Synodalgeschichte seit Mitte der 50er Jahre des 4. Jahrhunderts stellt er nachdrücklich das Nizänum als einzig orthodoxes und katholisches Glaubensbekenntnis in den Vordergrund seiner Darlegungen. Der vorliegende Band bietet eine Übersetzung und Einzelkommentierung des Schreibens unter philologischen, dogmengeschichtlichen und theologischen Gesichtspunkten. In der Einleitung werden behandelt: Überlieferung, Adressaten, Abfassungszeit, Echtheit, Form und Gattung, Verhältnis zu anderen Schriften des Athanasius, Sprache, Stil, Formen der Argumentation und Aufbau der Schrift. The Epistula ad Afros, a letter to the bishops of the diocese of Africa which was probably written approx. 366/367 CE, is an important witness to the theological position of Athanasius in the period after his return from his last exile, a period given little attention up to now. In reference to synodical history as of the middle of the fifties in the fourth century, he expressly puts the Nicene Creed in the foreground of his thoughts as the only orthodox and catholic confession of faith. The present volume offers a translation and individual commentary on the letter from the viewpoints of philology, the history of dogma, and theology. The introduction deals with the following: the transmission of the letter, addressees, date of writing, genuineness, form and genre, relationship to other writings of Athanasius, language, style, forms of argumentation, and structure of the letter.

Abstract

This biography of Church Father Athanasius the Great emphasizes Athanasius' role as a passionate opponent of Arianism and advocate of the ideas established at Nicaea of the essential unity of God the Father and the Son. Approaching his subject from both a historical and a theological perspective, the author shows the centrality of this debate to the formation of Christianity and the Western Roman Empire. He presents a portrait of "Athanasius contra mundum" (Athanasius against the world): after becoming archbishop of Alexandria, Athanasius was sent into exile five times, and called back each time by the emperor.

Abstract

Katherina van Alexandrië was in de Middeleeuwen een van de populairste heiligen in de Lage Landen. Volgens de overlevering was zij beeldschoon en buitengewoon intelligent. Zij liet zich dopen toen zij de hogere waarheid van de christelijke leer had ontdekt. Haar argumenten daarvoor overtuigden zelfs vijftig van de geleerdste mannen van die tijd. Uiteindelijk liet keizer Maxentius haar na talloze martelingen onthoofden. De heilige wordt dikwijls afgebeeld met een zwaard in haar ene hand en een boek in de andere. Naast haar staat gewoonlijk een (gebroken) rad en onder de zoom van haar jurk is soms het gekroonde hoofd van de keizer zichtbaar. Een lange tijd onvindbaar handschrift met een Middelnederlandse versie van Katherina’s vita wordt nu voor het eerst uitgegeven met een hertaling in modern Nederlands en uitvoerig commentaar. De inleiding beschrijft de religieuze en literair-historische achtergronden van de tekst.

Abstract

While the original goal of the 'festal letters', written by the archbishops of Alexandria, was to announce the dates of Lent, Easter, and Pentecost, they developed into treatises with pastoral purposes, to be read out in the parishes and monasteries throughout Egypt and Libya. In this book, Hans van Loon studies the mystagogy of Cyril of Alexandria (ca. 378-444) as it can be descerned in his twenty-nine extant festal letters. After an introduction, which deals with the historical background of the festal letters and gives an overview of their contents, various aspects of Cyril's mystagogy are discussed in detail: the centrality of the mystery of Christ; the role of the sacraments; the archbishop's typological interpretation of the Old Testament, and his attitude towards Judaism; how he encourages the faithful to fast and to pray, and to live virtuous lives; and finally, how he envisages our relationship with God.

Abstract

As the high-ranking Bishop of Alexandria from 328 to 373, Athanasius came into conflict with no fewer than four Roman emperors -- Constantine himself, his son Constantius, Julian the Apostate, and the "Arian" Valens. In this new reconstruction of Athanasius's career, Timothy D. Barnes analyzes the nature and extent of the Bishop's power, especially as it intersected with the policies of these emperors. Repeatedly condemned and deposed by church councils, the Bishop persistently resurfaced as a player to contend with in ecclesiastic and imperial politics. Barnes's work reveals that Athanasius's writings, though a significant source for this period, are riddled with deliberate misinterpretations, which historians through the ages have uncritically accepted. Untangling longstanding misconceptions, Barnes reveals the Bishop's true role in the struggles within Christianity, and in the relations between the Roman emperor and the Church at a critical juncture - Publisher
