The extensive writings of the Jewish philosopher and exegete Philo
of Alexandria (15 BCE to 50 CE) were preserved through the efforts
of early Christians, who decided that these works could assist them
in developing their own distinctive kind of thought. The present
collection of papers, written from 1989 to 1994, is published as a
companion volume to the author's monograph "Philo in Early
Christian Literature: A Survey" (1993). The papers deal with
various aspects of the process of reception that Philo received at
the hands of the Church Fathers. Authors who are given particular
attention are Athenagoras, Clement, Origen, Basil, Gregory of
Nyssa, Isidore of Pelusium and Augustine. The papers also include a
hitherto unpublished English translation of the author's inaugural
lecture held at Utrecht in April 1992.
