A Prophecy of Empire

The Apocalypse of Pseudo-Methodius from Late Antique Mesopotamia to the Global Medieval Imagination

Omschrijving

This is the best kind of history. Bonura has gone back to the sources, waded through the historiography, and emerged here with a transformative reading of Pseudo-Methodius, both in the moment of its creation as well as in its later transmission. Anyone who works on almost anything related to the medieval world will learn something important from this book.--Matthew Gabriele, Professor of Medieval Studies, Virginia Tech A very impressive and wide-ranging study. Bonura convincingly re-contextualizes Pseudo-Methodius in the full depth of its Syriac context and provides an important new translation of the text.--Philip Wood, Tejpar Professor of Inter-Religious Studies, The Aga Khan University
