Acknowledgements My interest in early Christian poetry began with my PhD work on the anonymous Carmen adversus Marcionitas (published Göttingen 1991), supervised and exam- ined by the classicist Siegmar Döpp and the historical theologian Wilhelm Geerlings, both then at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany. It is a Christian didactic poem which is as intricate as it is unknown. Its author cannot be determined and its controversially debated time of origin was located by me into the early fifth century at the very earliest. From then onwards this area of research has never ceased to fascinate me. This volume presents a collection of articles containing some of the ensuing fruits of my further studies in the field of early Christian poetry over the last two decades in a revised and updated form. The Principal’s Fund of the University of St Andrews, Scotland, gave a generous award to allow for the translation of six of the contributions in this volume from German into English. I am much indebted to Alastair Matthews and Madeleine Brook for their hard and diligent work with translating the sometimes very technical German. Their astute and critical minds not only helped to clarify some of the original statements but also removed a few factual infelicities. I am very grateful to Professor Irmgard Männlein-Robert and to the SFB 923 ‘Threatened Orders’ who invited me to spend the summer of 2014 as a visiting professor at the University of Tübingen, and generously funded two research assistants, Therese Hellmich and Sarah Blessing. I owe deep-felt thanks to both of them, as well as to Thomas G. Duncan, University of St Andrews, and my PhD student Lorenzo Livorsi, Universities of Kent, and then Reading, for helping me with various stages of finalizing this manuscript. Natur- ally all remaining errors are my own. Some of these chapters have in the meantime become ‘classics’ (such as Chapter 4), while others are more the coveted gems of connoisseurs (like Chapter 6 and 9). By offering these and selected other studies, all of them now in English, updated in line with recent scholarship, and with a few corrections—partly also following suggestions made by reviewers—added where necessary, this volume will make these chapters more widely and easily accessible to the academic community. As this research interest has accompanied me throughout my entire aca- demic career, it seems appropriate to acknowledge some of the people that have supported and inspired me on this academic journey. Professor Siegmar Döpp was the first to introduce me to the exciting and intricate field of early Christian poetry. He taught me to ask critical, imaginative, and unbiased questions and discover intellectually valid and exciting connections in vi Acknowledgements unexpected areas. For this I am most grateful, as for his kindness, good sense of humour, contagious enthusiasm, and high academic ethics. This is also true of the late Professor Wilhelm Geerlings whose wit and creative imagination were unparalleled. Further important academic influences were the late Profes- sors Manfred Fuhrmann (Classics, formerly Konstanz) and Reinhart Herzog (Classics, formerly Konstanz) to whose ground-breaking works in this field all my contributions owe more than can be made explicit. Among the many marvellous colleagues by whom I have been inspired and with whom I have shared thoughts, I wish to highlight Angelo di Berardino (Rome), Jan den Boeft (Leiden), Jean-Louis Charlet (Aix-en-Provence), Catherine Conybeare (Bryn Mawr), Jacques Fontaine (Paris), Roger Green (Glasgow), Hildegund Müller (Notre Dame), Willemien Otten (Chicago), Roberto Palla (Urbino), Kurt Smolak (Vienna), the late Basil Studer (San Anselmo, Rome), Mark Vessey (University of British Columbia), Dorothea Weber (Salzburg), Klaus Zelzer, and the late Michaela Zelzer (both Vienna).

  • Unforgettable Landscapes
    Unforgettable Landscapes: Attachments to the Past in Hellenistic Armenia Lori Khatchadourian Historical cartographers are quintessential memory specialists. Given the task of determining the relative importance of one hamlet, village, town, or city from another, those who map the past exercise the right to erase the memory of a place itself, along with the memories of the peoples, histories, and monuments through which that place was constituted. As reviewers of the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World recently wrote, “all maps—in one way or another, aggressively or unconsciously—‘lie’ to us” (Alcock, Dey and Parker 2001, 458). This discriminating duty of the cartographer, when paired with the narrow approach of traditional classical scholarship on the Near East during the Hellenistic era (ca. 323-31 BC), has resulted in rather peculiar maps of the period: undiscovered places that are mentioned in Greek and Roman sources are marked, while archaeological sites whose names do not appear in this particular body of literature are not. The dominant narrative concerning the Hellenistic Near East has radically privileged cities thought to have been havens of Hellenism, due to the celebrated works of Greek art their inhabitants produced. For the student of classical archaeology, the likely impression of the Near East in the enigmatic period between the collapse of the Persian Empire and the rise of the Roman Empire is like that of a photograph with well-focused, fore grounded, Hellenized hubs—such as Pergamon, Antioch, Ephasos—set against a soft-focused, hazy background of 1 places that were perhaps touched by the ripple effects of Hellenism, or stagnantly persisted as vestigially Persian.

  • Advent Poems to Ponder07.P65
    ○○○○ ADVENT POETRY COMPANION ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ Advent Poetry Companion: Poems for Prayer and Pondering How to pray with poetry Using poetry as a companion for prayer can be a rich and engaging endeavor. Poetry as an art form uses the cadences of the spoken word, the nuances of language, the signals of punctuation and the employment of metaphors to invite the listener into participation in the unfolding of layers of meaning. Words can provide a bridge to experiences that are beyond words. “Prepare in the This Advent, we have prepared an Advent Poetry Companion which offers an additional resource for your Advent journey. This companion provides poems wilderness a that can enrich and deepen the meaning of this liturgical season. ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ The prayers and liturgical readings of the Advent season are rich in meaning, symbolism, and prophetic themes. Poetry provides a beautiful way to explore highway for our and express these themes and probe more deeply the mystery of the incarna- God.” tion. Below are some simple suggestions for engaging poetry as a means of leading -Isaiah 40:3 you into prayer: 1. Seek a quiet space where you can minimize interruptions and take a few moments to enter into the silence. Let yourself sink deeply into the quiet. Invite God in. 2. Read just the title of the poem and ponder what this encounter might be about. 3. Read the poem aloud. Pay attention to the words, the sounds, the punctuation and what you are hearing in the poem. 4. Now read the poem silently and slowly letting the poem reveal new truths.

  • Ransom Is a Story of Vengeance Clashing with Grief.’ Discuss
    ‘Ransom is a story of vengeance clashing with grief.’ Discuss. In his lyrical novel, Ransom, David Malouf reimagines the final book of The Iliad, and in doing so, highlights the futility of countering grief with vengeance. He asserts the pointlessness of such vengeful actions, examines the role of the ‘rough world of men’ in creating it, and notes its cyclic nature, leaving many readers disheartened. However, Malouf also demonstrates how grief can be overcome with honourable actions. Malouf demonstrates to readers the uselessness of trying to assuage grief with acts of revenge. He introduces this concept right from the outset of the novel through his characterisation of Achilles. Malouf moves away from the traditional portrayal of Achilles as the most formidable of the Greeks and instead describes him as hollow and like a dead man. This new perspective of Achilles depicts him as lacking balance and feeling trapped in a clogging grey web due to his grief over the death of his soulmate Patroclus. Once Malouf describes Achilles’ barbaric actions in dragging around the corpse of Patroclus’ killer, Hector, it becomes clear to readers that Achilles is attempting to assuage his grief with violence and brutal, callous actions. Malouf uses imagery to depict Achilles as already dead himself as he continues to desecrate Hector’s body, by describing him as caked with dust like a man who has walked out of his grave. Thus, Malouf asserts how Achilles’ act of revenge has only wasted his spirit and left him feeling that it was never enough; being unable to overcome his pain at the loss of his friend.
