Julian's Against the Galileans
Author: Julian (Emperor of Rome)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
This is the first translation into modern English of the complete corpus of Julian's 'Against the Galileans' and related writings. It not only puts the work of the philosopher-emperor into historical perspective but offers important insights into the waning days of pagan philosophy and the growth of the Christian church against the background of intellectual and religious opposition. The work is essential reading for anyone interested in the religions of late antiquity, the growth of the Christian church, and the final phase of the conflict between paganism and Christian teaching.

Julian's Gods
Author: Rowland B. E. Smith
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134677464
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
Julian's brief reign (360-363 AD) had a profound impact on his contemporaries, as he worked fervently for a pagan restoration in the Roman Empire, which was rapidly becoming Christian. Julian's Gods focuses on the cultural mentality of `the last pagan Emperor' by examining a wide variety of his own writings. The surviving speeches and treatises, satires and letters offer a rare insight into the personal attitudes and motivations of a remarkable Emperor. They show Julian as a highly educated man, an avid student of Greek philosophy, and a talented author in his own right. This elegant and closely-argued study will deepen understanding not only of Julian, but of the context of fourth century Neoplatonism.
