  • The Function of Christian Letters of Recommendation; from Paul to Julian
    THE FUNCTION OF CHRISTIAN LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION; FROM PAUL TO JULIAN Jason File A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in t he Department of Religious Studies. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by: Bart Ehrman Zlatko Plese Peter Kaufmann ABSTRACT THE FUNCTION OF CHRISTIAN LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION; FROM PAUL TO JULIAN (Under the Direction of Bart D. Ehrman) This paper explores the function of Christian letters of recommendation, from the time of Paul (c. 50 CE) to the time of Emperor Julian (c. 350 CE). The first chapter provides background information concerning the function of letters of recommendation generally in antiquity. It is argued that the primary functions of such letters in Greco -Roman society was to provide hospitality for the traveler, and to testify to their trustworthiness. Where pagans used such letters for business or filial purposes, the early Chri stian church used them to build religious networks across the wide span of the Mediterranean world and the Levant. The second chapter of the thesis takes up the subject of hospitality practices in the Christian mission, and the third explores the use of letters of recommendation in the writings of the apostle Paul. Letters of recommendation were extremely important for the growth, spread and development of the Christian church. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter I. INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………….1 II.

  • Outline: Eusebius, Sulpicius, and the Christian Roman Empire Richard
    1 Outline: Eusebius, Sulpicius, and the Christian Roman Empire Richard Goodrich I. Introduction A. Argument: 1. In Sulpicius Severus' Chronicon, the Gallic author challenged and rejected Eusebius' model of a Christian Roman Empire. This was driven by complex motivations: Gallic antipathy toward the Roman state, apocalyptic thought, and a desire to promote Martin. B. Premises (To demonstrate my argument, I will show): 1. That Eusebius proposed an innovative model for a Christian Roman Empire 2. Sulpicius was familiar with Eusebius' works/model 3. Sulpicius rejected this model and offered his own alternative 4. Sulpicius' model was driven by: a. A provincial distrust of imperial authority b. His apocalyptic thought c. A desire to promote Martin C. Significance: A study of Sulpicius' project will contribute to our understanding of: 1. How provincial elites viewed the weakening Roman empire 2. How Christian Roman authors used texts and traditional rhetoric to promote themselves and their subjects 3. The ongoing debate among Christian thinkers about the proper relationship between church and state II. Background: Eusebius' Christian Roman Empire (Prem. 1) A. Eusebian Excess 1. Three centuries of animosity toward Christians comes to an end 2. Eusebius wants to ensure Christianity's place going forward 3. Promotes a model of a Christian Roman Empire based on the career of Constantine a. Most prominently in his works: Hist Ecc, Vita Const, and Laus Const 4. This model became normative over the next century a. Foundational for the entire Byzantine Empire B. Unpacking the Model (Key Secondary Sources for this Section = Cameron & Hall (1999); Barnes (1981), Drake (1995, 2000); Dvornik (1966)) 1.

  • Fountain-Of-Life Mosaics from Macedonia Ruth Kolarik the Fountain of Life Is the Most Common Figural Subject Among the Mosaics O
    Fountain-of-Life Mosaics from Macedonia Ruth Kolarik The fountain of life is the most common figural subject among the mosaics of Greek Macedonia, FJR of Macedonia and neighboring regions during the later fifth and first half of the sixth century. The pavements vary in quality, style and details of imagery. The sheer number of examples, however, makes it possible to compare them and assess the activity of various workshops in the region, their evolution and influences. The fountain of life compositions illustrate the words of Psalm 42, part of the baptismal liturgy, and are often appropriately located in baptisteries and associated rooms. Others occupy a variety of ecclesiastical and residential contexts. Two examples stand out in quality and complexity. The mosaic of the Ohrid Tetraconch's baptistery has varied images of the fountain of life combined with personifications of the rivers of paradise It does not have local parallels in quality or style. Another singular example is the central motif of the narthex mosaic in the Large Basilica at Heraclea Lyncestis featuring a vessel with vines set on acanthus leaves and flanked by a stag and a doe, as well as a pair of peacocks. The elaborate compositions, the quality of workmanship and the use of a great variety of materials, including glass, in these two examples suggest that they were laid by two separate workshops from cosmopolitan centers and/or were the work of wall mosaicists. A workshop centered at Stobi was responsible for the fountain of life mosaics in the Baptistery and House of Psalms there as well as an example at Edessa in northern Greece.

They were therefore planning to transfer the council to the neighboring city of Nicaea. 2.39.4 But this plan was again altered, as it seemed more 4.22.1 During about the same period, the Eastern 2.26.4 After a time, at the suggestion of the accusers of convenient to meet at Tarsus in Cilicia. Being dissatisfied bishops assembled to the number of about one hundred Eudoxius, Constantius ordered the synod to be held at with this arrangement also, they at last assembled and sixty, in Seleucia, a city of Isauria. This was during Seleucia. This town of Isauria lies on the seashore and is themselves at Seleucia, surnamed Aspera, a city of the consulate of Eusebius and Hypatius. the chief town of the district.

  • The Church in Rome in the First Century
    The Church in Rome in the First Century Author(s): Edmundson, George (1849-1930) Publisher: Grand Rapids, MI: Christian Classics Ethereal Library Description: In 1913, George Edmundson gave the University of Oxford©s Bampton Lectures, an annual (now biennial) lecture series that concentrates on Christian theological topics. This book contains the collection of Edmundson©s lectures, all of which concern Christianity©s first two hundred years. The majority of the book©s content addresses the New Testament directly, while a couple of the later lectures concern later early church figures such as Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, and Tertul- lian. During his time, Edmundson©s work was largely ignored, as he was a clergyman rather than a New Testament scholar. Not only this, but his conclusions differed vastly from the scholarly consensus of his contemporaries. Today, readers can approach Edmundson©s work as one piece of the ongoing dialogue in literary/historical criticism of the Bible.

  • A Virtual Reconstruction of the Baptistery of the Episcopal Basilica
    A Virtual Reconstruction of the Baptistery of the Episcopal Basilica at Stobi (Republic of Macedonia) By: Jade Stella Wells A Major Research Paper submitted to the Graduate Program in Classical Studies in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Department of Classics Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September 2018 Copyright © Jade Stella Wells, 2018 ABSTRACT In the last decade of the sixth century CE, the baptistery of the Episcopal Basilica at Stobi, presently located in the Republic of Macedonia, collapsed, which destroyed the roof and the interior support structure of the baptistery. When the building was excavated in 1971, the stratigraphy was difficult to interpret; scholars originally believed that the baptistery had been undisturbed, even though there was no evidence of the roof present in the stratigraphy. To date, two very different reconstructions have been made. The first (figs. 7-8), made by William Dinsmoor in 1975, was disproved by subsequent archeological discoveries. A second reconstruction (fig. 9) was published in 2006 by James Wiseman, but failed to include any supporting evidence from comparanda. Since no adequate reconstruction attempt has been made, this paper will put forth a new reconstruction for the baptistery, supported by a photogrammetry- derived 3D model and evidence of similar baptisteries from the same period. Additional research topics which have not been addressed in the existing scholarship of the baptistery will also be discussed, including the provenance of the kantharos and the function of the structure found underneath the baptistery. Acknowledgements The completion of this project has been made possible by the support of so many individuals.

  • The Experiences and Education of the Emperor Julian and How It
    COMPANION TO THE GODS, FRIEND TO THE EMPIRE: THE EXPERIENCES AND EDUCATION OF THE EMPEROR JULIAN AND HOW IT INFLUE NCED HIS REIGN Marshall Lilly Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2014 APPROVED: Christopher Fuhrmann, Major Professor Laura Stern, Committee Member Robert Citino, Committee Member Richard McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Lilly, Marshall. Companion to the Gods, Friend to the Empire: The Experiences and Education of the Emperor Julian and How It Influenced His Reign 361-363 A.D. Master of Arts (History), August 2014, 108 pp., bibliography, 114 titles. This thesis explores the life and reign of Julian the Apostate the man who ruled over the Roman Empire from A.D. 361-363. The study of Julian the Apostate’s reign has historically been eclipsed due to his clash with Christianity. After the murder of his family in 337 by his Christian cousin Constantius, Julian was sent into exile. These emotional experiences would impact his view of the Christian religion for the remainder of his life. Julian did have conflict with the Christians but his main goal in the end was the revival of ancient paganism and the restoration of the Empire back to her glory. The purpose of this study is to trace the education and experiences that Julian had undergone and the effects they it had on his reign. Julian was able to have both a Christian and pagan education that would have a lifelong influence on his reign.
