    0213-0270 – Gregorius Thaumaturgus – a Declaration of Faith A

    0213-0270 – Gregorius Thaumaturgus – A Declaration of Faith A Declaration of Faith this file has been downloaded from http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/anf06.html ANF06. Fathers of the Third Century: Gregory Thaumaturgus, Philip Schaff Dionysius the Great, Julius Africanus, Anatolius, and Minor Writers, Methodius, Arnobius believed to have been gifted with a power of working miracles, which he was constantly exercising. But into these it is profitless to enter. When all the marvellous is dissociated from the historical in the records of this bishop’s career, we have still the figure of a great, good, and gifted man, deeply versed in the heathen lore and science of his time, yet more deeply imbued with the genuine spirit of another wisdom, which, under God, he learned from the illustrious thinker of Alexandria, honouring with all love, gratitude, and veneration that teacher to whom he was indebted for his knowledge of the Gospel, and exercising an earnest, enlightened, and faithful ministry of many years in an office which he had not sought, but for which he had been sought. Such is, in brief, the picture that rises up before us from a perusal of his own writings, as well as from the comparison of ancient accounts of the man and his vocation. Of his well-accredited works we have the following: A Declaration of Faith, being a creed on the doctrine of the Trinity; a Metaphrase of the Book of Ecclesiastes, a Panegyric to Origen, being an oration delivered on leaving the school of Origen, expressing eloquently, and with great tenderness of feeling, as well as polish of style, the sense of his obligations to that master; and a Canonical Epistle, in which he gives a variety of directions with respect to the penances and discipline to be exacted by the Church from Christians who had fallen back into heathenism in times of suffering, and wished to be restored.

Fathers of the Third Century: Gregory Thaumaturgus, Philip Schaff Dionysius the Great, Julius Africanus, Anatolius, and Minor Writers, Methodius, Arnobius authority ordained two persons in their place,1342 namely, one in prison and another in the mines. On learning these things the blessed Peter, with much endurance, wrote to the people of Alexandria an epistle in the following terms.1343 ———————————— Pamphilus. 165 ———————————— Translator’s Biographical Notice. [A.D. 309.] According to the common account Pamphilus was a native of Berytus, the modern Beirût, and a member of a distinguished Phœnician family. Leaving Berytus, however, at an early period, he repaired to Alexandria and studied under Pierius, the well-known head of the Catechetical school there. At a subsequent period he went to the Palestinian Cæsareia, and was made a presbyter of the Church there under Bishop Agapius. In course of the persecutions of Diocletian he was thrown into prison by Urbanus, the governor of Palestine. This took place towards the end of the year 307 A.D., and his confinement lasted till the beginning of the year 309, when he suffered martyrdom by order of Firmilianus, who had succeeded Urbanus in the governorship of the country. During his imprisonment he enjoyed the affectionate attendance of Eusebius, the Church historian, and the tender friendship which subsisted long between the two is well known. It was as a memorial of that intimacy that Eusebius took the surname of Pamphili.

While the Thirteenth Century was engaged in solving the problems of the higher education and of technical education for the masses, and was occupied so successfully, as we have seen, with the questions of the rights of man and the development of law and of liberty, other and more directly social and humanitarian works were not neglected. There had been hospitals in existence from even before the Christian era, but they had been intended rather for the chronic ailments and as the name implies, for the furnishing of hospitality to strangers and others who had for the time no habitation, than for the care of the acutely ill. In the country places there was a larger Christian charity which led people to care even for the stranger, and there was a sense of human duty that was much more binding than in the modern world.

    THE LIFE OF GREGORY THE WONDERWORKER INTRODUCTION To better comprehend the context in which this rather lengthy panegyric was composed, we should situate it within the broader context of several funeral orations composed by Gregory of Nyssa which are related to the following persons: Basil the Great, Meletios of Antioch, Pulcheria and Flacilla, the latter two women being members of the imperial household of Theodosios. The first two orations are especially helpful in understanding Gregory's Life of Gregory Thaumaturgos because they allow insight into how bishops of the early Christian era were offered as outstanding examples for their flocks. Furthermore, their lives and accomplishments often developed into cultus which exerted varying degrees of influence throughout the early Mediterranean world1. The opening words to Gregory of Nyssa's Life set the tone of this panegyric which most likely was delivered on 17 November in the year 380: "Both our essay and the congregation assembled here have one aspiration, namely, to reflect upon the great Gregory." However, Jean Bernardi quickly points out2 that the exact location of the church where this panegyric was pronounced is not exactly clear as the following passage reveals: After death he [Gregory Thaumaturgos] sojourned in alien tombs and having rejected earthly possessions, he was not buried in his own place. His sole honor was to be completely untainted by greed. (J.54.12-15) Although this passage indicates the absence of a particular location for the saint's resting place, the panegyric delivered by Gregory of Nyssa most likely took place in the church of Neo-Caesarea3.

D. Cornell University 2009 Hostage and captive-taking were fundamental to medieval warfare and medieval society in general. Despite their importance, however, until recently, these practices have received very little scholarly attention. In particular, the relationship between gender and these practices has been virtually ignored. The evidence, however, belies this neglect, and the sources are littered with examples that not only illuminate the importance of women and gender to these customs, but also how women used them to exercise power and independence militarily, politically, socially, and religiously. Moreover, women worked within a patriarchal society that was often deeply distrustful of their participation in hostage and captive situations in any capacity. This thesis attempts to fill the gaps in the scholarship and illuminate the importance of considering gender when examining hostage- and captiveship. It pulls together evidence from a wide variety of historical and literary sources to suggest that women were not only victims of these processes as hostages and captives themselves, but were also active participants in them as hostage and captive takers, ransomers, and holders. Moreover, they were sometimes but not always accepted in such roles.
