  • ECCLESIAE OCCIDENTALIS MONUMENTA IURIS ANTIQUISSIMA Ed
    ECCLESIAE OCCIDENTALIS MONUMENTA IURIS ANTIQUISSIMA ed. C.H. Turner (Oxford, 1899-1939) Index of Names and Selected Words Corrected, revised, and extended 2008 by Philip R. Amidon, S.J. Creighton University [email protected] It has seemed opportune to republish this index in a corrected and extended version; there has been added to the list of names a list of selected words, and the method of referring to the text has been somewhat altered. The exact scope of C.H. Turner’s masterpiece is not immediately apparent from its title or subtitles (Canonum et conciliorum graecorum interpretationes latinae; Canones et concilia graeca ab antiquis interpretibus latine reddita). What one in fact finds here is an edition of the earliest surviving collections of church canons in Latin which are undoubtedly from the fourth century or have been assigned to it by at least some consensus of scholarship; some of them are translations from Greek, while others were originally drafted in Latin itself. Most of them, with the exception of the Apostolic Constitutions and Canons, are attributed to church councils. Turner, however, also offers a selection of doctrinal and historical material of enormous value, some of it indeed connected to the councils whose canons he edits; a comparison, for instance, of the creed contained in the synodical letter of the Council of Sardica with the Tomus Damasi, will suggest how far the doctrinal education of the western church advanced during the course of the fourth century. The connection of other historical matter to the canons is less obvious, however; one wonders what the Athanasian Historia acephala is doing here (granted that it is part of the collection of Theodosius the Deacon), however grateful one is to have the edition.

  • Religious Developments in Late Roman Lycia: Topographical Preliminaries*
    RELIGIOUS DEVELOPMENTS IN LATE ROMAN LYCIA: TOPOGRAPHICAL PRELIMINARIES* GARTH FOWDEN Christianity's rise and paganism's fall perennially interest late Roman historians. The story is no longer treated as a straight gladia­ torial combat - 'The conflict of paganism and Christianity'. Both re­ ligions gave and took; and if apologists liked to draw firm lines, that was because many ordinary people did not. But other misconcep­ tions remain. In particular, the replacement of paganism by Chris­ tianity is still widely treated as a conscious change in religious taste - Christianity's triumph was the reward of intrinsic superiority, even if that superiority had social and organizational as well as doctrinal and cultic aspects. There were of course converts who had either made this calculation, or personally experienced Christianity's ad­ vantages. But we have been too much influenced by the well-known literary paradigms of conversion. Justin's narrative of his search for truth at the beginning of the Dialogue with Trypho, or Minucius Fe­ lix's account of the pagan Caecilius's debate on the beach at Ostia * Ei δέ τούτοις τις άπιστήσει, ού πολύς μέχρι της Λυκίας ό σκυλμός, προς πληροφο- ρίαν της αληθείας, says John Moschus, after telling the story of the miraculous lamp at Kerdebota near Oenoanda (Prat. 215). Thanks are nonetheless due to the Nation­ al Hellenic Research Foundation (Centre for Greek and Roman Antiquity), the Netherlands Organization for the Advancement of Pure Research (Z.W.O.) and the 'Panorama' Cultural Society of Athens, for alleviating the financial σκυλμός of two visits to Lycia (August 1985 and December 1988); to Marianna Koromila of 'Pano­ rama1, without whose enthusiasm I would have gone on postponing the project whose first instalment is here presented; to Martin Harrison and Robert A.

  • Christianity in Lycia: from Its Beginnings to the “Triumph of Orthodoxy”
    ADALYA XVIII, 2015 Christianity in Lycia: From its beginnings to the “Triumph of Orthodoxy” Julian BENNETT* Introduction In his seminal article on the churches of Lycia, R. M. Harrison opined that the relative lack of information about Christianity in that region during the Imperial period was “probably acciden- tal”, basing his observation on the belief that the coastal cities of the region, ‘in close commer- cial contact’ with the Levant and Egypt, were likely to be as “receptive to the new religion as were other, better documented parts of Asia Minor”1. The reality is, though, that a broad range of evidence does exist to suggest that some of Lycia’s inhabitants were receptive to the “new religion” from as early as the Apostle Paul’s first missionary journey to Anatolia in c. 46/48. The principal purpose of this article, then, is to identify and elaborate on these items regarding early Christianity in Lycia as a means of correcting this rather one-sided opinion. In addition, however, the opportunity is taken to explore here a greatly neglected topic: namely the reac- tion of the Lycian Church to the various Christological debates that repeatedly divided the early Church from the sole reign of Constantine I and the First Ecumenical Council in 325, to the re- gency of Theodora and the Synod of Constantinople in 842 and its celebration of the “Triumph of Orthodoxy”, marking the final defeat of iconoclasm and so also the genesis of the modern Eastern Orthodox Church. This excursus, though, will naturally necessitate some basic analysis of the underlying issues to elucidate their substance and so better understand the controversies they generated and how these impacted on the wider Church.
