Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren, minimal bestoßen, Mängelexemplarstempel auf Fußschnitt/unused, minor shelfwear, slightly bumped, remainder mark stamp on edge. Edited by Anna Usacheva, Jörg Ulrich and Siam Bhayro. Twelve essays explore the long-standing tensions between such notions as soul and body, spirit and flesh, in the context of human immortality and bodily resurrection. The discussion revolves around late antique views on the resurrected human body and the relevant philosophical, medical and theological notions that formed the background for this topic. Soon after the issue of the divine-human body had been problematised by Christianity, it began to drift away from vast metaphysical deliberations into a sphere of more specialized bodily concepts, developed in ancient medicine and other natural sciences. To capture the main trends of this interdisciplinary dialogue, the contributions in this volume range from the 2nd to the 8th centuries CE, and discuss an array of figures and topics, including Justin, Origen, Bardais an, and Gregory of Nyssa. This volume is the result of the workshop 'Bodily Resurrection vs Immortality: Philosophy, Medicine, Theology', that took place at the XVIII Conference on Patristic Studies in Oxford (August 19-24, 2019).
