Clement of Alexandria and the Shaping of Christian Literary Practice
J.M.F. Heath, Clement of Alexandria and the Shaping of Christian Literary Practice: Miscellany and the Transformation of Greco-Roman Writing, Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2020. ISBN-13: 978-1108843423, ISBN-10: 1108843425. Price £ 75.The reason that so few manuscripts have survived of the works of Clement of Alexandria may be that the name of Clement was too well-known in antiquity to be quickly forgotten but that his works were too eso…
Execution as Entertainment
Arena spectacles with high levels of violence were an important component of the social and political fabric of Roman life, especially in the urban areas of the empire. Although the people who were featured in these entertainments were mostly very low ranking slaves, captive prisoners, and convicted criminals they performed for citizens of the highest level, including emperors and their families. This chapter focuses on wild beast hunts and publi…
Odysseus Wanders into Late Antiquity
The images on African red slip ware (ARS) hold special significance for scholars of late antiquity and its religious history. This imagery reflects the competition between established beliefs and the new Christian religion. The survey in the Lexicon iconographicum mythologiae classicae makes it clear that the theme of Odysseus tied to the mast was very popular. It can be found on a vast spectrum of media, ranging from vase painting through wall p…
Pottery, Pavements, and Paradise
These essays on late antiquity traverse a territory in which Christian and pagan imagery and practices compete, coexist, and intermingle. The iconography of the most significant late antique ceramic, African Red Slip Ware, is an important and relatively unexploited vehicle for documenting the diversity and interpenetration of late antique cultures. Literary texts and art in other media, particularly mosaics, provide imagery that complement and en…
Clement of Alexandria
Clement of Alexandria was active as a Christian philosopher and teacher in the later second and early third centuries. In spite of his topographic nickname, Clement did not originate in Alexandria but was born elsewhere, possibly in Athens, of non‐Christian origin.
Pantaenus
Pantaenus has been a figure with a low historical profile and a high speculative aura. The sparse information about him comes mainly from Clement of Alexandria; Origen; Alexander of Jerusalem; Pamphilus ( see Pamphilus of Caesarea); Eusebius ( see Eusebius of Caesarea); Anastasius of Sinai; and Maximus the Confessor.
Alexandria (Egypt), Catechetical School of
Scholarship and teaching had been a well‐established activity in Alexandria long before Christianity reached its shores. It is therefore not surprising to read in the accounts of the church historian Eusebius, our primary source of information, that a Christian school existed in Alexandria toward the end of the second century.
Clement of Alexandria and the Beginnings of Christian Apophaticism
Anicius Auchenius Bassus, African Red Slip Ware, and the Church
Some years ago a rectangular ceramic panel appeared at auction in London and made its way to Boston (fig. 1). The object was purchased by Cornelius C. Vermeule III, who placed it on loan to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. The technical term in English to describe the fabric of this kind of ceramic is “African Red Slip” ware—abbreviated ARS. The term was coined by John Hayes, a scholar who has done important work in classifying these wares. In …
Assessing Philo’s Influence in Christian Alexandria
Paulinus of Nola, Courtyards, and Canthari
Some of the most elaborate and detailed descriptions of early Christian churches by a Latin writer are given by the nobleman Pontius Meropius Paulinus, who is usually known as Paulinus of Nola, after the city where he became bishop in the latter part of his life. He was born in Bordeaux around 353, of a wealthy family that had extensive properties in Aquitania, Gallia Narbonensis, Latium, and Campania. He received an education appropriate to his …

Methodius of Olympus
Studies in Gnosticism and Alexandrian Christianity
The discovery of the Nag Hammadi Library (1945) has given an enormous impetus not only to the study of ancient Gnosticism but also to that of early Christianity in general. Most of the studies contained in this volume deal with mythological conceptions and theological ideas found in various Nag Hammadi writings. The gnostic views on the nature of God and on creation and salvation receive particular attention, ranging from Philo to the medieval Ca…
The “Catechetical” School of Early Christian Alexandria and Its Philonic Heritage
For centuries, the so-called catechetical school in Alexandria has intrigued scholars and stimulated speculation on its origins and early practices. The relationship of this school to Jewish-Hellenistic antecedents has made the problem doubly fascinating. Hypotheses about the school, however, have sometimes far exceeded the limits of the scanty information surviving in ancient authors, who themselves had incomplete evidence for their reconstructi…
Techniques of Quotation in Clement of Alexandria. A View of Ancient Literary Working Methods
Dans l'Antiquite, emprunter un materiel litteraire propre a un auteur est un phenomene courant. Clement d'Alexandrie travaille sans etre conscient de l'interaction entre memoire, sources intermediaires, consultation directe des textes et prise de notes. Sa maniere d'introduire des citations varie assez souvent, grâce a des techniques constrastees pour introduire les apotres et les philosophes, les poetes et les prophetes, les amis. Clement d'Alex…
