This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chromatius of Aquileia and the Making of a Christian City examines how the increasing authority of institutionalized churches changed late antique urban environments. Aquileia, the third largest city in Italy during late antiquity, presents a case study in the transformation of elite Roman practices in relation to the urban environment. Through the archaeological remains, the sermons of the city’s bishop, Chromatius, and the artwork and epigraphic evidence in the sacred buildings, the city and its inhabitants leave insights into a reshaping of the urban environment and its institutions which occurred at the beginning of the 5th century. The words of the bishop attacking heretics and Jews presaged a shift in patronage by rich donors from the city as a whole to only the Christian church. The city, both as an ideal and a physical reality, changed with the growing dominance of the Church, creating a Christian city.

Download or read book Constructing Christian Community written by Robert McEachnie and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He contrasted the Jewish community with barbarians so as to redraw a traditional definition of Roman identity on Christian/Jewish rather than civilized/barbarian lines. The results were an isolation of Judaism as an essentialized ethnicity. Finally, Chromatius framed Christianity as an heir to Roman views of virtue and vice. He posited Christian virtues as the solution to the vices of excess ... avarice, luxury and ambition ... which had been deemed responsible for the downfall of the Roman Republic. Chromatius fashioned an argument about virtues which was aimed at elite women in particular. Their conversion to his form of Christianity, one centered in the basilica instead of a house, presented the church new wealth and power. The sermons, when read within the local context, reveal a project of Christianization designed to construct Nicene Christianity as the only legitimate center of the cosmopolitan city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Building the Body of Christ, Daniel C. Cochran argues that monumental Christian art and architecture played a crucial role in the formation of individual and communal identities in late antique Italy. The ecclesiastical buildings and artistic programs that emerged during the fourth and fifth centuries not only reflected Christianity’s changing status within the Roman Empire but also actively shaped those who used them. Emphasizing the importance of materiality and the body in early Christian thought and practice, Cochran shows how bishops and their supporters employed the visual arts to present a Christian identity rooted in the sacred past but expressed in the present through church unity and episcopal authority. He weaves together archaeological and textual evidence to contextualize case studies from Rome, Aquileia, and Ravenna, showing how these sites responded to the diversity of early Christianity as expressed through private rituals and the imperial appropriation of the saints. Cochran shows how these early ecclesiastical buildings and artistic programs worked in conjunction with the liturgy to persuade individuals to adopt alternative beliefs, practices, and values that contributed to the formation of institutional Christianity and the “Christianization” of late antique Italy.

Download or read book The Lord’s Prayer in the Early Church written by R. Hammerling and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-09-27 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord s Prayer is arguably the most important prayer in Christianity. Still, exactly how the prayer developed in the life of the early church has remained hidden in ancient manuscripts. Hammerling s thorough and ground-breaking examination of these works reveals that early authors enthusiastically expounded upon its power and mystery, claiming that the prayer uttered by Christ belonged at the core of Christian ritual and beliefs. Many early church writers labeled it a "perfect summary of the gospel" and joyously referred to it as a pearl of great price and worth.

Download or read book The Muratorian Fragment written by Clare K. Rothschild and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers an introduction, critical edition, and fresh English translation of the Muratorian Fragment. In addition to addressing questions of authorship, date, provenance, and sources, Clare K. Rothschild carefully analyzes the text's language, composition, genre, and possible functions with reference to a breathtaking range of scholarly positions and findings from the eighteenth century to the present. She also investigates its position within the eclectic eighth-century Muratorian Codex (Ambr. I 101 sup.). A line-by-line philological commentary draws attention to literary, philosophical, and religious aspects of the individual traditions represented. This study should be of interest to scholars of the New Testament and early Christian literature, as well as experts on the emergence of the canon and historians of the Latin Medieval West.
