Paper Back. Condition: Very Good. In this clearly written, carefully nuanced, and substantial study, the author traces the development of the conception and practice of spiritual direction over two centuries from Athanasius to Gregory the Great. Demacopoulos posits that a distinction between monastic (ascetical) and lay (sacramental and moral) models of spiritual direction dominated this period and uses a series of patristic case studies to illustrate a range of acceptance, rejection, and synthesis. Though Athanasius exalts the ascetical model of Antony, he emphases the necessity of episcopal oversight of the rapidly growing monastic movement. With the increasing predominance of monk-bishops, especially in the East, Gregory of Nazianzus represents a concern that priests and bishops combine the ascetical and pastoral aspects of their offices. Augustine focuses on the priority of the doctrinal and homiletical skills of the spiritual father as pastor, while his contemporary (and in many ways polar opposite) John Cassian speaks almost exclusively of spiritual direction in a monastic context. Gregory the Great is the epitome of the priest who could master ascetic practice while prudently shepherding a flock 'in the world,' and the enthusiastic reception of his Pastoral Care in West and East confirmed the dominance of that model. That Demacopoulos' study defines spiritual direction in terms of the changing nature of episcopacy and pastorate implies much about our contemporary, individualistic conception of the nature of that task. 274 pp. Very minor cover wear, slight fading to the spine, pristine text.

Paperback. Condition: New. Gregory the Great (bishop of Rome from 590 to 604) is one of the most significant figures in the history of Christianity. His theological works framed medieval Christian attitudes toward mysticism, exegesis, and the role of the saints in the life of the church. The scale of Gregory's administrative activity in both the ecclesial and civic affairs of Rome also helped to make possible the formation of the medieval papacy. Gregory disciplined malcontent clerics, negotiated with barbarian rulers, and oversaw the administration of massive estates that employed thousands of workers. Scholars have often been perplexed by the two sides of Gregory-the monkish theologian and the calculating administrator. George E. Demacopoulos's study is the first to advance the argument that there is a clear connection between the pontiff's thought and his actions. By exploring unique aspects of Gregory's ascetic theology, wherein the summit of Christian perfection is viewed in terms of service to others, Demacopoulos argues that the very aspects of Gregory's theology that made him distinctive were precisely the factors that structured his responses to the practical crises of his day. With a comprehensive understanding of Christian history that resists the customary bifurcation between Christian East and Christian West, Demacopoulos situates Gregory within the broader movements of Christianity and the Roman world that characterize the shift from late antiquity to the early Middle Ages. This fresh reading of Gregory's extensive theological and practical works underscores the novelty and nuance of Gregory as thinker and bishop.

Paperback. Condition: New. On the first anniversary of his election to the papacy, Leo the Great stood before the assembly of bishops convening in Rome and forcefully asserted his privileged position as the heir of Peter the Apostle. This declaration marked the beginning of a powerful tradition: the Bishop of Rome would henceforth leverage the cult of St. Peter, and the popular association of St. Peter with the city itself, to his advantage. In The Invention of Peter, George E. Demacopoulos examines this Petrine discourse, revealing how the link between the historic Peter and the Roman Church strengthened, shifted, and evolved during the papacies of two of the most creative and dynamic popes of late antiquity, ultimately shaping medieval Christianity as we now know it. By emphasizing the ways in which this rhetoric of apostolic privilege was employed, extended, transformed, or resisted between the reigns of Leo the Great and Gregory the Great, Demacopoulos offers an alternate account of papal history that challenges the dominant narrative of an inevitable and unbroken rise in papal power from late antiquity through the Middle Ages. He unpacks escalating claims to ecclesiastical authority, demonstrating how this rhetoric, which almost always invokes a link to St. Peter, does not necessarily represent actual power or prestige but instead reflects moments of papal anxiety and weakness. Through its nuanced examination of an array of episcopal activity-diplomatic, pastoral, political, and administrative-The Invention of Peter offers a new perspective on the emergence of papal authority and illuminates the influence that Petrine discourse exerted on the survival and exceptional status of the Bishop of Rome.
