This volume is the first critical edition of the theological
fragments of Asterius of Cappadocia, the so-called Arian Sophist,
who lived in the early fourth century.
The first part of the volume provides an introduction to the
theological thought of Asterius, an important member of the
"Eusebians." It also compares the theological thought of Asterius
with Origen's and Arius' theology. The second part consists of the
77 theological fragments of Asterius of Cappadocia with a German
translation.
In the third part a commentary is given for each fragment
explaining the content, the language and also the authenticity of
the texts.
This edition offers a newly worked critical edition of the text of
the Liber ad Renatum monachum, a didactic letter written in the 1st
quarter of the 5th century on the correct lifestyle for monks. The
letter is rhetorically ambitious and linguistically polished,
combining satire, theology and parainesis in the style of
Hieronymus.
