"Review of <I>The Middle East Under Rome</I>"
College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University DigitalCommons@CSB/SJU School of Theology and Seminary Faculty Publications School of Theology and Seminary 10-2006 "Review of The Middle East under Rome" Michael Patella OSB College of Saint Benedict/Saint John's University, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.csbsju.edu/sot_pubs Part of the Asian History Commons, and the European History Commons Recommended Citation Patella, Michael. Review of The Middle East under Rome, by Maurice Sartre, Translated by Catherine Porter and Elizabeth Rawlings with Jeannine Routier-Pucci. The Catholic Biblical Quarterly, vol. 68 issue 4, (2006): 741-743. Originally published in The Catholic Biblical Quarterly, https://catholicbiblical.org/publications/cbq. BOOK REVIEWS 741 archal Narrative and Mosaic Yahwism [Minneapolis: Fortress, 1992]), P. suggests that a Mosaic narrator, though shaping the text to suggest a typological connection with Joshua's conquest, may have judged the massacre by Simeon and Levi, for example, as inappropri ate in the ancestral "dispensation," making it an "antitype," of later "holy war" under Joshua. A reading in the Christian "dispensation" would reset the ethical accents of the story once more. Although Christian readers might possibly interpret Simeon and Levi's violence typologically as spiritual "violence" deployed by the church against real vio lence, they must reject the actual violence perpetrated by Simeon and Levi as an anti- model. In chap. 6, P. addresses various feminist perspectives on Genesis 34, admits its "patriarchal" perspective (though relativized by the biblical metanarrative), and allows for midrashic reconstructions of largely unvoiced perspectives of female characters (Dinah, the Hivite women); but he resists firmly any imposition of extrabiblical canons as authori tative for the story's interpretation. -

The Crucial Development of Heavy Cavalry Under Herakleios and His Usage of Steppe Nomad Tactics Mark-Anthony Karantabias
The Crucial Development of Heavy Cavalry under Herakleios and His Usage of Steppe Nomad Tactics Mark-Anthony Karantabias The last war between the Eastern Romans and the Sassanids was likely the most important of Late Antiquity, exhausting both sides economically and militarily, decimating the population, and lay- ing waste the land. In Heraclius: Emperor of Byzantium, Walter Kaegi, concludes that the Romaioi1 under Herakleios (575-641) defeated the Sassanian forces with techniques from the section “Dealing with the Persians”2 in the Strategikon, a hand book for field commanders authored by the emperor Maurice (reigned 582-602). Although no direct challenge has been made to this claim, Trombley and Greatrex,3 while inclided to agree with Kaegi’s main thesis, find fault in Kaegi’s interpretation of the source material. The development of the katafraktos stands out as a determining factor in the course of the battles during Herakleios’ colossal counter-attack. Its reforms led to its superiority over its Persian counterpart, the clibonarios. Adoptions of steppe nomad equipment crystallized the Romaioi unit. Stratos4 and Bivar5 make this point, but do not expand their argument in order to explain the victory of the emperor over the Sassanian Empire. The turning point in its improvement seems to have taken 1 The Eastern Romans called themselves by this name. It is the Hellenized version of Romans, the Byzantine label attributed to the surviving East Roman Empire is artificial and is a creation of modern historians. Thus, it is more appropriate to label them by the original version or the Anglicized version of it. -

A Church That Teaches: a Guide to Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity
A Church that Teaches A Guide to Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel at Thomas Aquinas College A Church that Teaches A Guide to Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel at Thomas Aquinas College Second Edition © 2010 quinas A C s o a l m l e o g h e T C 1 al 7 if 19 ornia - 10,000 Ojai Road, Santa Paula, CA 93060 • 800-634-9797 www.thomasaquinas.edu Foreword “This college will explicitly define itself by the Christian Faith and the tradition of the Catholic Church.” — A Proposal for the Fulfillment of Catholic Liberal Education (1969) Founding document of Thomas Aquinas College Dear Friend, In setting out on their quest to restore Catholic liberal education in the United States, the founders of Thomas Aquinas College were de- termined that at this new institution faith would be more than simply an adornment on an otherwise secular education. The intellectual tra- dition and moral teachings of the Catholic Church would infuse the life of the College, illuminating all learning as well as the community within which learning takes place. Just as the Faith would lie at the heart of Thomas Aquinas College, so too would a beautiful chapel stand at the head of its campus. From the time the College relocated in 1978 to its site near Santa Paula, plans were in place to build a glorious house of worship worthy of the building’s sacred purpose. Those plans were long deferred, however, due to financial limitations and the urgent need to establish basic campus essentials such as dining facilities, residence halls, and classrooms. -
The Case of Michael Glykas' Letter Collection and Biblos Chronike In
DOI 10.1515/bz-2020-0036 BZ 2020; 113(3): 837–852 Eirini-Sophia Kiapidou Writing lettersand chronography in parallel: the case of Michael Glykas’ letter collection and Biblos Chronike in the 12th century Abstract: This paper focuses on the 12th-century Byzantine scholarMichael Gly- kas and the two main pillars of his multifarious literaryproduction, Biblos Chronike and Letters, thoroughly exploring for the first time the nature of their interconnection. In additiontothe primary goal, i.e. clarifying as far as possible the conditions in which these twoworks were written, taking into account their intertextuality,itextends the discussion to the mixture of features in texts of dif- ferent literarygenre, written in parallel, by the same author,basedonthe same material. By presentingthe evidence drawnfrom the case of Michael Glykas, the paper attemptstostress the need to abandon the strictlyapplied taxonomical logic in approaching Byzantine Literature, as it ultimatelyprevents us from con- stitute the full mark of each author in the history of Byzantine culture.
