商品描述

This book provides close historical, theological and cultural analyses of an important, but neglected, Late Antique writer, Isaac of Antioch, who was active during the second half of the fifth century. This book is the first English-language monograph on this key figure and also includes the first translation (without the Syriac) of this compelling metrical homily into English, which has at its heart the public pronouncement by a parrot of theological truths. The authors situate this remarkable text in the wider fields of performance studies, animal studies and media studies, all areas that can illuminate essential meanings and implications of the homily.

這本書對一位重要但被忽視的晚期古代作家安提阿的以撒(Isaac of Antioch)進行了深入的歷史、神學和文化分析,他在五世紀下半葉活躍。本書是第一部關於這位關鍵人物的英語專著,並且首次將這篇引人入勝的韻文講道翻譯成英語(不包含敘利亞文),其核心是由一隻鸚鵡公開宣告的神學真理。作者將這篇非凡的文本置於表演研究、動物研究和媒體研究等更廣泛的領域中,這些領域能夠揭示講道的基本意義和含義。
