Faksimile des Physiologus Bernensis --Verzeichnis der Autorinnen und Autoren --Bibliographie zum Physiologus (Auswahl) --Stellenregister (Auswahl) --Namen- und Sachregister (Auswahl) This volume offers detailed studies into the Physiologus, a Greek manuscript probably written in Egypt in the 2nd century CE. The Physiologus was the first Christian text to sum up a general understanding of nature using biblical and pagan sources and it has an extensive reception history throughout the medieval period. Its symbolic use of animals and plants, etc., has deeply influenced visual arts, literature, and heraldry, but this visual language often remains enigmatic. This book, going back to a project of the Swiss National Foundation (Das 9 vangelium der Natur: Der griechische Physiologus und die Wurzeln der frühchristlichen Naturdeutung) offers new insights into the origins and the interpretation of this symbolic language Was hat der Pelikan mit Christus zu tun oder das Einhorn mit der Jungfrau Maria? Der Physiologus, eine ursprünglich in griechischer Sprache in Ägypten abgefasste frühchristliche Schrift, bietet unter Aufnahme biblischer wie paganer Motivik und Naturlehre eine christliche Gesamtdeutung der Natur. Über mittelalterliche Bestiarien findet die Symbolik des Physiologus Eingang in Kunst, Literatur und Heraldik. Die Bedeutung einer solchen christologisch grundgelegten Bildsprache bleibt indes heutzutage vielfach rätselhaft. Im vorliegenden Band wird die Schrift mit ihren Quellen, ihren onto-theologischen Grundlagen und ihren Deutungsmethoden sowie ihrer Rezeption breit interdisziplinär ausgeleuchtet (antike Naturkunde, altorientalische und biblische Bildwelt, Septuaginta, Kirchenväterliteratur, Rezeption in Kunst und Musik, Handschriftenkunde), um so zu einem historischen Verständnis christlicher Tiersymbolik beizutragen. Ein besonderes Augenmerk liegt auf der berühmten illuminierten Berner Physiologus-Handschrift, die vollständig abgedruckt wird

It focuses on various aspects of literary imagination, with essays ranging from Petrarch to Voltaire; on the canon, with essays on western history as one of shifting cultural horizons and ideals, and including censorship; and on the Christian Middle Ages, when an interesting combination of religion and culture stimulated the monastic and intellectual experiments of Anselm of Canterbury and Peter Abelard.

    Literature and the Scottish Reformation offers a full-scale reconsideration of the series of relationships between literature and Reformation in early modern Scotland. Previous scholarship in this area has tended to dismiss the literary value of the writing of the period - largely as a reaction to its regular theological interests. Instead the essays in this volume reinforce recent work that challenges the received scholarly consensus by taking these interests seriously, and argues for the importance of this religiously orientated writing through the adoption of a series of interdisciplinary a

    One of the most pressing issues for scholars of religion concerns the role of persuasion in early Christianities and other religions in Greco-Roman antiquity. The essays in Rhetoric and Reality in Early Christianities explore questions about persuasion and its relationship to early Christianities. The contributors theorize about persuasion as the effect of verbal performances, such as argumentation in accordance with rules of rhetoric, or as a result of other types of performance: ritual, behavioural, or imagistic. They discuss the relationship between the verbal performance of rhetoric and o Rhetoric, rhetoricality, and discourse performances /Willi Braun --The rhetoric of social construction: language and society in the Gospel of Thomas /William E.

    The present volume has been compiled by colleagues and friends as a tribute to Dr. A. Hilhorst, the Secretary of the Journal for the Study of Judaism, on the occasion of his 65th birthday. Its 23 contributions by renowned international experts, reflect the various interests of the honouree, his approach to the Classical and Semitic languages and literatures as forming part of a continuum, and his attention to the interactions between the different literary corpora.Several contributions deal with the interaction of the Old Testament with later Jewish, Gnostic, or Christian writings; others explore the influences of Greek writings within a Jewish context at the levels of philology, of theological ideas, of realia, or of influence of literary compositions. Furthermore, a number of contributions centers on the interaction of Greek motives in Jewish and Christian literature, whereas in several others the focus is on the Martyrium literature or on early Christian texts

    Annotation, This volume covers the geographical spread of Christianity in its first three centuries. It is arranged by continents - Asia, Europe and Africa - to show the gradual development of Christian communities down to the Council of Nicaea in 325. The area surveyed stretches from Wales to the borders of India, and from the Northern coasts of the Black Sea to the plains of Morocco. The result is a picture not only of the outward development of early Christianity but of the variety that existed within it as well

    A leading biblical scholar's landmark work challenges the historical realism that has dominated the discipline for more than two centuries How can a modern person, informed by science and history, continue to recite the traditional creeds and confessions of the Christian church? What does the Bible mean and how do we verify biblical truths? In this groundbreaking book, a leading biblical scholar urges readers to be more creative interpreters of biblical texts, mapping out an alternative way of reading that is not first and foremost about understanding what those texts would have meant for the original authors and readers. Limiting our study to the ancient meaning of the text, he argues, has produced either bad history, or bad theology, or both. One cannot derive robustly orthodox Christian doctrine or theology from a mere "historical" interpretation of the Bible. Martin offers instead theological readings of the New Testament that are faithful to Christian orthodoxy as generally understood, but without attempting a "foundationalist" understanding of the meaning of the text.0His provocative and ambitious book demonstrates how theology and scripture can remain vital in the twenty-first century Introduction -- Knowledge -- Scripture -- God -- Christ -- Spirit -- Human -- Church
