From the 6th century onwards, Syriac patristic florilegia – collections of Greek patristic excerpts in Syriac translation – progressively became a prominent form through which Syriac and Arab Christians shaped their knowledge of theology. In these collections, early Greek Christian literature underwent a substantial process of selection and re-organization. The papers collected in this volume study Syriac florilegia in their own right, as cultural products possessing their own specific textuality, and outline a phenomenology of Syriac patristic florilegia by mapping their diffusion and relevance in time and space, from the 6th to the 17th century, from the Roman Empire to China.

Dionysius bar Salībī, a prominent 12th-century Syriac Orthodox bishop and scholar, played a key role in shaping Syriac Christian theology during a period of significant political upheaval in the eastern Mediterranean. His vast intellectual contributions spanned all major ecclesiastical disciplines of his time, including numerous theological works and scriptural commentaries. This volume brings together nine scholarly essays that explore his writings, theological insights, and his active role in both interreligious and intra-Christian debates. By examining his legacy, these studies highlight how Bar Ṣalībī both consolidated and reshaped Syriac traditions to address the challenges of his era. The volume offers a wide range of perspectives on his enduring influence, underlining the significance of his multi-faceted contributions to Syriac Christianity.

This book provides close historical, theological and cultural analyses of an important, but neglected, Late Antique writer, Isaac of Antioch, who was active during the second half of the fifth century. This book is the first English-language monograph on this key figure and also includes the first translation (without the Syriac) of this compelling metrical homily into English, which has at its heart the public pronouncement by a parrot of theological truths. The authors situate this remarkable text in the wider fields of performance studies, animal studies and media studies, all areas that can illuminate essential meanings and implications of the homily.

Palimpsests are manuscripts whose original content has been erased, scraped away, washed off and later overwritten. In their lower layers, they often contain unique versions of texts – including those otherwise lost – from Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The volume addresses palimpsesting across languages, cultures, and times, as well as up-to-date research and imaging practices applied to them and results achieved in reconstituting removed layers.

A fresh look at how Christianity and Judaism became two distinct religions through the parting of their intellectual traditions How, when, and why did Christianity and Judaism diverge into separate religions? Emanuel Fiano reinterprets the parting of the ways between Jews and Christians as a split between two intellectual traditions, a split that emerged within the context of ancient debates about Jesus’s relationship to God and the world. Fiano explores how Christianity moved away from Judaism through the development of new practices for religious inquiry. By demonstrating that the constitution of communal borders coincided with the elaboration of different methods for producing religious knowledge, the author shows that Christian theological controversies, often thought to teach us nothing beyond the history of dogma, can cast light on the broader religious landscape of late antiquity. Three Powers in Heaven thus marks not only a historical but also a methodological intervention in the study of the parting of the ways and in scholarship on ancient religion.

Die antike Welt ist in großem Umfang eine höchst produktive und verzweigt organisierte Briefschreibkultur. Im vorliegenden Handbuch Brief: Antike beleuchten mehr als 70 international führende Forscher und Forscherinnen antike Briefe, Briefschreiber und Brieftypen in ihren jeweiligen literarischen, sozialen und infrastrukturellen Zusammenhängen. Dabei werden aktuelle Fragen einer transepochalen Briefforschung auf die antiken Briefe, Briefcorpora und Briefautoren so übertragen, dass einerseits antike Briefe im Lichte neuester Forschungsfragen erschlossen werden und andererseits die fundierende Bedeutung der antiken Epistolographie für die Geschichte der Briefschreibkultur bis in die Gegenwart deutlich wird: Was weist einen Brief in seiner Medialität und Materialität als ‚Brief‘ aus? Wie kann der Brief - schon in der Antike - Distanz zwischen Personen oder über Raum und Zeit hinweg regulieren? Welche Funktion haben Corpusbildungen? Was macht das antike ‚Briefschreibbewusstsein‘ aus? Welche konzeptionelle Variabilität ermöglichte der Brief? Wer definierte, wann und was einen Brief zu einem ‚Brief‘ machte und wo das Briefformat konzeptionell an seine Grenzen stieß? So kann das Handbuch Brief: Antike einen Beitrag zur möglichen Revision einer transepochalen Beschreibungssprache in der Briefforschung leisten: Welche Einsichten auf Wesen, Form und Funktion des Briefes ergeben sich aus der antiken Epistolographie? Welche Forschungsstrategien sind angezeigt, und welche zusätzlichen Daten (Metadaten) werden benötigt, um die Verfügbarkeit, Verbreitung, Vernetzung und Verdichtung von Briefproduktion und -rezeption in der antiken Welt zu untersuchen und abzubilden?
