The Stromata Or Miscellanies V8 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162709727)

The Stromata or Miscellanies V8 is a book written by Clement of Alexandria, a prominent Christian theologian who lived in the late 2nd and early 3rd centuries AD. The book is part of a larger work called the Stromateis or Miscellanies, which is a collection of essays on various topics related to Christian theology and philosophy.In this particular volume, Clement explores a wide range of subjects, including the nature of God, the role of the Bible in Christian life, the importance of virtue, and the relationship between faith and reason. He also discusses various heresies and critiques of Christianity that were prevalent in his time, and provides arguments for why he believes they are false.The Stromata or Miscellanies V8 is considered an important work in the history of Christian theology, as it provides valuable insights into the beliefs and practices of early Christians. It is also notable for its use of philosophical and scientific ideas from the Greco-Roman world, which Clement incorporates into his arguments and interpretations of Christian doctrine. Overall, the book is a fascinating and insightful read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the development of Western thought.Now, on the man who proposes the question denying that plants are animals, we shall show that he affirms what contradicts himself. For, having defined the animal by the fact of its nourishment and growth, but having asserted that a plant is not an animal, it appears that he says nothing else than that what is nourished and grows is both an animal and not an animal.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
