  • Description: Relevant to the main topic is Ulrike Gantzs analysis of Gregory of Nyssas farewell oration in honour of Bishop Meletius of Antioch who died on 10 May 381 while presiding over the Second Ecumenical Council at Constantinople. Prudentius is represented in essays by Willy Evenepoel and Kurt Smolak, while historians will be interested in Otto Hiltbrunners demonstration of how the highly esteemed craft of the Greek physician of classical society continued to ourish in the east under Christianity and Islam, the latter largely due to the inuence of the Nestorians. 0 19 924695 5JEH (54) 2003; DOI: 10.1017/S0022046903227974 For half-a-century Henry Chadwick has been contributing to our knowledge of early Christian history, covering an immensely wide range of subjects from Priscillian of Avila to Boethius, and Early Christianity and the classical tradition to Augustine of Hippo, to say nothing of his translations of Origen, Augustine and the Sentences of Sextus.It would be tempting to present the book under review as summing up a lifetimes scholarship, were it not that Chadwicks apparently inexhaustible energy may already have impelled him to the composition of yet another major work. 0 7123 4675 9; 1 58456 025 8JEH (54) 2003; DOI: 10.1017/S0022046903237970 These three volumes are the product of a series of annual conferences held in 19957 at Hampton Court, Herefordshire, under the joint aegis of the Van Kampen Foundation, devoted to the growth and maintenance of the collection of rare bibles of Robert and Judith Van Kampen of western Michigan, and The Scriptorium: Center DURHAM 510 JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY for Christian Antiquities, the home of the Van Kampen collection, whose function is to promote research into the eld that it represents.
