The Reception of Paul and Early Christian Initiation
Situates Pauline analysis within the context of early Christian institutions. Examines the hermeneutics of reception-historical studies.
Exegetical Crossroads
The art of interpreting Holy Scriptures flourished throughout the culturally heterogeneous pre-modern Orient among Jews, Christians and Muslims. Different ways of interpretation developed within each religion not without considering the others. How were the interactions and how productive were they for the further development of these traditions? Have there been blurred spaces of scholarly activity that transcended sectarian borders? What was the role played by mutual influences in profiling the own tradition against the others? These and other related questions are critically treated in the present volume.
Studia Chrysostomica
Hauptbeschreibung Die 13 Studien über Johannes Chrysostomus (ca. 349-407), dem bereits die Göttinger Habilitationsschrift Adolf Martin Ritters gewidmet war, sind seit 1969 entstanden und die meisten seit 1971 veröffentlicht worden; die erste und die letzte waren bislang unveröffentlicht. Sie beleuchten, nicht unkritisch, eine der Lichtgestalten der Kirchengeschichte, und das unter ganz unterschiedlichen, nicht zuletzt methodologischen, Aspekten.

Reconciliation
Hardly any other topic is as important for the coexistence of mankind as the question of justice and reconciliation. In this volume, we want to examine this important question from different interdisciplinary and international perspectives in order to develop an overall understanding that will contribute to reconciliation in various cultural and religious fields of conflict in the world. Particular attention will be paid to the theological perspective on reconciliation, in which justice and restoration of relationships play a central role.

Christians Shaping Identity from the Roman Empire to Byzantium
The essays collected in Christians Shaping Identity celebrate Pauline Allen’s significant contribution to early Christian, late antique, and Byzantine studies, especially concerning bishops, heresy/orthodoxy and christology. Covering the period from earliest Christianity to middle Byzantium, the first eighteen essays explore the varied ways in which Christians constructed their own identity and that of the society around them. A final four essays explore the same theme within Roman Catholicism and oriental Christianity in the late 19th to 21st centuries, with particular attention to the subtle relationships between the shaping of the early Christian past and the moulding of Christian identity today. Among the many leading scholars represented are Averil Cameron and Elizabeth A. Clark.
Exegesis and History of Reception
"Why should we take into account the history of reception in biblical methods? It is because as exegetes we have no choice. Recognizing our dependence on interpretations of the past is not a new method, but it is the very way we understand texts. Régis Burnet shows how this allows us to put our current interpretations into perspective, but also to dialogue with those of the past." --
