Synopsis

From 1974 to 2002, the Society of Biblical Literature published "an experimental journal for biblical criticism", a scholarly collection of papers and monographs on selected topics. This edition, the 58th from 1992, prices the second part (of a two-part series) on discursive formations, ascetic piety, and the interpretation of early Christian literature. Included are monographs on translocation of parental images in fourth-century ascetic texts, diverse images of the APOTAKTIKOI(AI) of early Egyptian monasticism, "Monastic Anthropology, Demonology, and Asceticism", stories about Ethiopian Moses, the acts of the council of Saragossa, medical models in Manichaean asceticism, and contemporary prospects for the study of asceticism.
