{"product_id":"the-intellectual-world-of-late-lewis-ayres-9781108835299","title":"The Intellectual World of Late Antique Christianity: Reshaping Classical Traditions","description":"The Intellectual World of Late-Antique Christianity explores new perspectives on early Christian epistemology in relation to the changing discourses, institutions, and material culture of late antiquity. Early Christian modes of knowing and ordering knowledge involved complex processes of appropriation, reproduction, and reconfiguration of Jewish and classical epistemologies. This helped Christians develop cultures of interpretation and argument as textually oriented religious communities within the Roman Empire and beyond. It laid an intellectual foundation that would be built upon and modified in a variety of later contexts. Encompassing Greek, Latin, and Syriac Christianity, and an historical arc that stretches from the New Testament to Bede, this volume traces how diverse theological commitments resulted in distinctive Christian accounts of knowing. It foregrounds the myriad ways in which early Christian epistemology was embedded in earlier intellectual traditions and forms of life, and how they established norms for communal life and powerful ways of acting in the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lewis Ayres\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108835295\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108835299\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/26\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 734\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 6.85w x 2.05d","brand":"Lewis Ayres","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44761221562623,"sku":"9781108835299","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b2b07557-4bb4-4817-a70f-962a051687a1.jpg?v=1706680720","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-intellectual-world-of-late-lewis-ayres-9781108835299","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
