Orphée et les Chrétiens: La réception du mythe d’Orphée dans la littérature chrétienne grecque des cinq premiers siècles. Volume 2. Pourquoi Orphée? By Fabienne Jourdan
This book is the sequel to the author’s study of Clement’s handling of Orpheus and his philosophy in the Protrepticus (see JTS, ns 62 [2011], pp. 352–5).

Zusammenfassung: | This book is the sequel to the author’s study of Clement’s handling of Orpheus and his philosophy in the Protrepticus (see JTS, ns 62 [2011], pp. 352–5). Clement again is the centrepiece, but his portrait of the Thracian in the Stromateis is now framed by a panoramic view of Orpheus’ peregrinations in the Christian world up to the middle of the fifth century. Both as poet and as an early (if not the earliest) theologian of the Greek world, Orpheus can be regarded either as a purveyor of ignorance or as an oracle of revealed truth which was cheapened and obscured by his successors. |
