  La escatología es uno de los componentes centrales de la cultura cristiana medieval. El fin del mundo, el Juicio Final, la salvación, el mesianismo, el Anticristo, el apocalipticismo y el milenarismo, son elementos indispensables dentro de lo que podemos denominar genéricamente como "escatología medieval". En ese universo, la llegada del Anticristo precedía al Juicio Final y al fin del mundo. Esto propiciaba la aparición de profecías y estimulaba la conformación de un presente "en espera" en función de un futuro de salvación o de condena con el horizonte del Juicio Final. Este escenario escatológico medieval lo podemos encontrar esparcido en acontecimientos, autores, textos, movimientos sociales o representaciones culturales y artísticas. En cuanto a los acontecimientos, tenemos, por ejemplo, los miedos y temores altomedievales cristalizados en los "terrores del año mil", las expectativas sobre el fin del mundo durante el siglo XI, la "...

  Christian Teachers in Second-Century Rome.  Schools and Students in the Ancient City Series:  Vigiliae Christianae, Supplements , Volume: 159 Volume Editor:   Gregory H. Snyder Essays in  Christian Teachers in Second-Century Rome  situate Christian teachers in the social and intellectual context of the Roman urban environment. The teaching and textual work of well-known figures such as Marcion, Justin, Valentinus, and Tatian are discussed, as well as lesser-known and appreciated figures such as Theodotus the Cobbler. Authors probe material and visual evidence on teachers and teaching activity, adopting different theoretical perspectives that go beyond the traditional “church – school” dichotomy: comparative looks at physicians, philosophers and other textual experts; at synagogues, shops and other sites where students gathered around religious entrepreneurs. Taken as a whole, the volume makes a strong case for the sheer diversity of Christian teaching act...

  Clement of Alexandria and the Shaping of Christian Literary Practice.  Miscellany and the Transformation of Greco-Roman Writing J. M. F. Heath ,  University of Durham.  Cambridge University Press  2020  Online ISBN: 9781108918640 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1017/9781108918640   Clement of Alexandria's Stromateis were celebrated in antiquity but modern readers have often skirted them as a messy jumble of notes. When scholarship on Greco-Roman miscellanies took off in the 1990s, Clement was left out as 'different' because he was Christian. This book interrogates the notion of Clement's 'Christian difference' by comparing his work with classic Roman miscellanies, especially those by Plutarch, Pliny, Gellius, and Athenaeus. The comparison opens up fuller insight into the literary and theological character of Clement's own oeuvre. Clement's Stromateis are contextualised within his larger literary project in Christian formation, which began w...
