This volume includes a new critical text edition by Prof. Carl Laga and a new English translation by Dr. Joshua Lollar. It also offers a unique insight into the universe of the great Christian thinker, showcasing his extensive knowledge of Aristotelian, Platonic and Neoplatonic philosophy and offering possible parallels with the Corpus Hermeticum and Ps-Dionysius the Areopagite. The present volume is the first attempt to bring together scholars from different traditions to understand the message and the reception of this seminal work.

Archaeology: Just Add Water

The world of underwater archaeology, however, is increasingly recognized as a field that is vital to our understanding of the past. The chapters gathered together into this volume draw on research first presented at the Fourth Warsaw Seminar on Underwater Archaeology, held at the University of Warsaw on 18–20 November 2021. From the seas of the Caribbean through to the Mediterranean and Norway, and from Antiquity through to contemporary times, the chapters presented here offer a dazzling array of different approaches to underwater archaeology and outline the potential that changing technology presents in this expanding field.

Aux origines judéennes du christianisme
show More to view fulltext, buy and share links for:Aux origines judéennes du christianisme show Less to hide fulltext, buy and share links for: Aux origines judéennes du christianismeSimon Claude Mimouni a été titulaire de la direction d’études « Origines du christianisme » à la Section des Sciences religieuses de l’École pratique des hautes études entre 1995 et 2017. Il est l’auteur d’une œuvre académique considérable, qui a renouvelé en profondeur la manière dont les historiens conçoivent habituellement le judaïsme et le christianisme anciens. Ses travaux insistent notamment sur deux composantes souvent négligées voire ignorées du judaïsme antique : le judaïsme chrétien, et le judaïsme sacerdotal et synagogal. Ce volume lui rend hommage. Il réunit quarante contributions groupées selon trois perspectives : « phénoménologies du judaïsme et du christianisme », « histoire et catégorisation sociales », « rhétorique de l’histoire et administration de la preuve ». Ces contributions, qui relèvent de domaines et de thématiques variées, témoignent de la fécondité des voies ouvertes par Simon Claude Mimouni dans la recherche sur les « religions » du monde tardo-antique.
