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 genr ...

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.

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 s ...
