Cet ouvrage s'inscrit dans un débat qui a fait couler beaucoup d'encre au sein des études néoplatoniciennes : Pourquoi la théurgie apparaît-elle chez les néoplatoniciens tardifs et, surtout, pourquoi acquiert-elle un statut apparemment si privilégié? Afin de répondre à cette question, il est primordial de définir clairement ce qu'est la théurgie, tout en établissant son lien avec la mystagogie, l'orphisme et les Oracles chaldafques. Cette étude concerne la philosophie du plus illustre platonicien du Ve siècle : Produs le Diadoque. Il y est aussi question des autres grandes figures du néoplatonisme, principalement Plotin, Porphyre, Jamblique et Damascius. Au-delà de la genèse, de la définition et du statut de la théurgie chez le Lycien, nous démontrons que la théurgie, loin d'apparaître comme un ovni dans la philosophie néoplatonicienne, en représente plutôt le couronnement et permet de mieux comprendre l'entièreté de la pensée des platonisants de l'Antiquité tardive.

Enchantment and Creed in the Hymns of Ambrose of Milan offers the first critical overview of the hymns of Ambrose of Milan in the context of fourth-century doctrinal song and Ambrose's own catechetical preaching. Brian P. Dunkle, SJ, argues that these settings inform the interpretation of Ambrose's hymnodic project. The hymns employ sophisticated poetic techniques to foster a pro-Nicene sensitivity in the bishop's embattled congregation. After a summary presentation of early Christian hymnody, with special attention to Ambrose's Latin predecessors, Dunkle describes the mystagogical function of fourth-century songs. He examines Ambrose's sermons, especially his catechetical and mystagogical works, for preached parallels to this hymnodic effort. Close reading of Ambrose's hymnodic corpus constitutes the bulk of the study. Dunkle corroborates his findings through a treatment of early Ambrosian imitations, especially the poetry of Prudentius. These early readers amplify the hymnodic features that Dunkle identifies as "enchanting," that is, enlightening the "eyes of faith." - back of book
