This book is a collection of studies initially presented at the Third International Conference on Clement of Alexandria, which was focused on the Paedagogus. Although on the surface the Paedagogus seems to be more easily accessible than Clement's lengthier Stromateis or his fragmentary Excerpta ex Theodoto, the studies show that a profound theological undercurrent runs through the three books of the Paedagogus – the first focusing on the Logos, and the other two on ethics.
Contributors: Emanuela Prinzivalli, Veronika Hrůšová, Miklós Gyurkovics, Edward Creedy, Marco Rizzi, Annewies van den Hoek, Vít Hušek, Léon-Ferdinand Karuhije, Lenka Karfíková, Ilaria L.E. Ramelli, Riemer Roukema, Jana Plátová, Johannes Aakjær Steenbuch, Dawn LaValle Norman, Carlo Perelli.

An Introduction and Reader
Author:
This sourcebook serves both as an introduction and a wide-ranging reference work for human attitudes to nonhuman animals in Latin Europe during the Middle Ages. Under twelve headings, it includes numerous translated passages from Latin and vernacular texts that reflect human conceptions and uses of other animals during the period 300-1520. Theologians, philosophers, encyclopaedists, bestiarists, hagiographers, chroniclers, huntsmen and writers of agricultural manuals, cookbooks and plague treatises all had something to say about the place of nonhuman animals in their world and their interaction with humans, or simply recorded what they did incidentally in their writings. All are represented here.

Applying a Collective Memory of Jesus to the Interpretation of 1 Corinthians 4:16 and 11:1
Author:
What did the Corinthians think that Paul meant when he urged the them to imitate him as he imitates Christ? Exploring 1 Corinthians, Romans, 1 Clement, and early Christian texts, it is likely that the Corinthians knew more of Jesus's teach and lifestyle. Using the fruit of collective memory studies, this study approximates a collective memory about Jesus. It then compares this approximated memory with the surrounding context of 1 Cor 4:16 and 11:1 finding much agreement.

In Collecting Practices and Opisthographic Collections in Qumran and Herculaneum, Ayhan Aksu offers a new perspective on practices of collection in both the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Herculaneum papyri. This study focuses on the intriguing question how ancient scribes and scholars used manuscripts to bring different texts in conversation with each other. Central to Aksu’s approach are opisthographic manuscripts – scrolls that contain text on both the front and back side. Comparative research of the rich papyrus collection from Herculaneum reveals that scribes across various regions of the Mediterranean developed dynamic approaches to engage with their texts.
