6. Socrates of Constantinople: Historian of Church and State.
by Urbainczyk, Theresa: 
Price: USD 50.00
Dealer: ZVAB, Fundus-Online GbR Borkert Schwarz Zerfaß
Description: ISBN10: 0472107372, ISBN13: 9780472107377, [publisher: Ann Arbor: The University of Michigan Press] Hardcover VIII, 215 p. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar / dust jacket slightly rubbed, otherwise a good and clean copy. - The fourth century A.D. saw the death of the ancient world and the birth of the medieval era. Pagan temples crumbled through disuse, while Christian churches sprang up throughout the fledgling Holy Roman Empire. The emperor Constantine's conversion changed Christianity's fortunes forever. Pagans blamed the decline and fall of the Roman Empire on Christianity, but Christians explained events differently. Historians' views of the past have always been influenced by their position in society. Socrates of Constantinople was no exception. The church history of Socrates is one of the most important sources, eastern or western, pagan or Christian, for the fourth and early fifth centuries. This book is the first detailed study of Socrates' history, and it describes the historical situation in which he wrote his work, pulling together all the personal information available about the author. It then examines the history itself, how it was composed, and which sources were used, and it looks at the relationship between Socrates' work and other church histories. The book goes on to explore Socrates' attitudes toward bishops, emperors, and their enemies. Socrates is often dismissed by modern scholars for being unable to master the genre of ecclesiastical historiography. Urbainczyk argues that he introduced secular material deliberately. In his view arguments and division in the church caused trouble in the state. In other words, when church leaders quibbled oyer theology, they endangered the state. It was their duty, therefore, for the sake of church and state, to unite under the emperor. This study not only calls on scholars to reexamine Socrates of Constantinople but also makes the wider argument that the ancients were far less concerned with genre than modern scholars, and that the ecclesiastical history is a continuation, not a deviation, from political history. Socrates of Constantinople: Historian of Church and State will be of interest to students and academics interested in late Roman history, early church history, theology, and historiography. Anyone studying the history of the fourth and early fifth centuries will find this examination of Socrates' attitudes essential. / Contents Abbreviations Introduction Chapter 1.

9. Socrates of Constantinople (Hardcover)
by Theresa Urbainczyk 
Price: USD 114.64
Dealer: AbebooksUK, CitiRetail
Description: ISBN10: 0472107372, ISBN13: 9780472107377, [publisher: The University of Michigan Press, Ann Arbor] Hardcover Hardcover. The fourth century c.e. saw the death of the ancient world and the birth of the medieval. Pagan temples crumbled through disuse, while Christian churches sprang up around the fledgling Holy Roman Empire. The emperor Constantine's conversion to Christianity changed history: pagans blamed the decline and fall of the Roman Empire on Christianity, but Christians explained events differently. The church history written by Socrates of Constantinople is one of the most important sources, Eastern or Western, pagan or Christian, for these complex centuries. Socrates of Constantinople: Historian of Church and State is the first detailed study of Socrates' history--it describes the historical situation in which he wrote his work, and it pulls together all the personal information available about the author. The volume then examines Socrates' own work: how it was composed, which sources were used and how, and it looks at the relationship between Socrates' work and other church histories. It goes on to consider Socrates' attitudes towards bishops, emperors, and their enemies.Socrates is sometimes dismissed by modern scholars for being a poor ecclesiastical historiographer. However, Theresa Urbainczyk carefully demonstrates Socrates' theory of causation, which affected the way he wrote his history, and she argues that he introduced secular material deliberately. In his view arguments and division in the church caused trouble in the state. In other words, when church leaders quibbled over theology, they endangered the state. It was therefore their duty, for the sake of church and state, to unite--under the emperor. This study not only calls on scholars to reexamine Socrates of Constantinople but makes the wider arguments that the ancients were far less concerned with genre than are modern scholars, and that ecclesiastical history is a continuation of, not a deviation from, political history.Socrates of Constantinople: Historian of Church and State will be of interest to students and scholars interested in late Roman and early Christian history, theology, and historiography. Anyone studying late antiquity will find an examination of Socrates' attitudes essential.Theresa Urbainczyk is College Lecturer in the Department of Classics, University College, Dublin.
