En savoir plus sur le livre
Focusing on the cultural context of Ignatius of Antioch's letters, the analysis reveals his engagement with the Hellenic traditions of the Second Sophistic rather than solely addressing internal Church issues. Allen Brent argues that Ignatius' rhetoric reflects the political and social dynamics of the Greek city-states, highlighting themes of autonomy and unity against Roman dominance. His innovative approach to ecclesial order, framed within the conventions of secular society, was not fully appreciated by his contemporaries, leading to later misinterpretations of his work.
