The work offers a new critical edition of the Syriac text; the first-ever published English translation; a substantial introduction to Palestinian monasticism, the christological controversies of the time, and the life and writings of John Rufus; and ample annotations to a Syriac text whose Greek original is no longer available. By providing access to the Christian landscape (literally and metaphorically) in late antique and early Byzantine times, this volume offers a valuable counterbalance from a minority perspective to the biographical and historical writings of the Chalcedonian apologist Cyril of Scythopolis.Writings from the Greco-Roman world ;v. 24.John Rufus :the lives of Peter the Iberian, Theodosius of Jerusalem, and the Monk RomanusMonasticism and religious ordersIberia (Kingdom)HistoryEarly church, ca. 30-600Monasticism and religious ordersPalestineHistoryEarly church, ca. 30-600Monasticism and religious ordersHistoryMonasticism and religious ordersHistory270.2092/2BJohn RufusBishop of Maiuma,active 476-518.1860034Horn Cornelia B948966Phenix Robert R.Jr.,1973-948967John RufusBishop of Maiuma,active 476-518.1860034MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910954932403321The lives of Peter the Iberian, Theodosius of Jerusalem, and the Monk Romanus4464494UNINA
