The reception of ancient Christian literature in the 17th century
was not limited to theology or dogmatics; the multitude of genres
is indicative of the way patristic texts were dealt with. Using
selected paradigms (comparative literature, encyclopedias, biblical
hermeneutics, interdenominational conflict, philology,
philosophical argumentation), the articles in this volume provide a
quantitative evaluation of patristic quotations in the 17th century
while also focusing on the way in which the altered understanding
of the patristic texts is linked to the changed conditions under
which they were read. In spite of the progress made in scholarship
in the 17th century, there was a crisis in education and breaks
with tradition. One of the results of this was that Augustine in
particular lost his previously unchallenged position in the 16th
century. With contributions by: Silke-Petra Bergjan, Hanns Christof
Brennecke, Irene Dingel, Ralph Hafner, Karla Pollmann, Scott
Mandelbrote, Diana Stanciu, Johann Anselm Steige
