I'll be teaching the whole Cyril-Nestorius christological controversy this week. I always struggle to create some kind of useful diagram of the positions for my students -- what visualizations do you use if you teach this?

Graf on Arabic translations of Eusebius

In Graf's Geschichte der christlichen arabischen Literatur, vol. 1, p. 318, is a note on translations of Eusebius in Arabic.  Here it is:

85. Eusebius, Bischof von Cäsarea (gest. 339 oder 340). Abu'l-Barakät, Katal. 648 erwähnt von ihm "Erklärungen zu den Abschnitten des heiligen Evangeliums und verschiedene Abhandlungen''. Mit den ersteren...

@strangenoblesad@toad.social I started reading that... then thought 'that's familiar'... then realised I wrote it ! Weird. #theology #patristics

#introduction
My name is Kevin. I am an independent scholar, with a focus on #patristics and historical #theology.

My books include Athanasius and the Holy Spirit: The Development of His Early Pneumatology (2016), Christianity in the First and Second Centuries: Essential Readings (2022), and I'm currently writing a book on the Nicene and Apostles creeds with Todd Scacewater.

There was a discussion of the ProQuest version of the Patrologia Latina on Medtext-l a few days ago and two useful alternatives were mentioned:

https://www.mlat.uzh.ch/ (searchable, with dictionaries)
https://patristica.net/latina/ (links to scanned PL volumes, primarily at Google Books but a substantial minority at archive.org. #patristics #theology #latin

In any case I do think it helpful, if not best, when introducing the authors of #LateAntiquity and the Patristic Era, to not ask someone to necessarily read an entire treatise or dialogue immediately. As with acquired tastes, these things take time and gradual exposure.

#patristics

In some ways it is a much better introductory text than On Love, simply because it has less minutiae. It may also be observed that, as primary texts go, this one—being not much more than 30 pp. long—does not tend to meander much. It is fairly straightforward.

Beginning students of #patristics may find it much easier, for example, to read The Ascetic Life by #MaximusTheConfessor than, say, On the Incarnation of the Word of God by Athanasius, or even On the Apostolic Preaching by Irenaeus.

The Ascetic Life by #MaximusTheConfessor, as his first major work (preceding On Love), may be read and viewed as a lens from which our perception of his schema and theory finds continuity and expansion as we read his later works. Nearly all his themes are there in seminal form.

Excepting the long diatribe (if one may be pardoned for the expression) on judgement, the dialogue is very balanced and can serve as a good introduction to the thinking of Maximus.

#Patristics #ChurchFathers

Hello! By way of #Introduction, I am Scott, an Orthodox Christian. I have always lived in the #Midwest of the USA. In what I have comfortably termed undergraduate seminary I fell in love with #Patristics (reading the #churchfathers) and the study of #LateAntiquity. By day I am a Customer Service Associate in retail.

I am also a #musician. I sing in my community chorus, and I write my own compositions on occasion. I've been married seven years.

I am part of the latest #TwitterMigration.
