Reseña del libro "Death in Second-Century Christian Thought: The Meaning of Death in Earliest Christianity (en Inglés)"

Death in Second-Century Christian Thought' explores how the meaning of death was conceptualized in this crucial period of the history of the church. Through an exploration of key metaphors and other figures of speech that the early church used to talk about this fascinating and controversial topic, Jeremiah Mutie argues that the church fathers selected, adapted and exploited existing pagan ideas about the subject of death in order to offer a distinctively Christian view based on Biblical texts. The death, burial and resurrection of Jesus were critical to this development, as was the Christian promise of eternal life. In this erudite book, Mutie shows how Christians engaged with the views of death in late antiquity, coming up with their own characteristic belief in life after death.Table of Contents"PrefaceAcknowledgments List of Abbreviations chapter 1 Introduction chapter 2 The Concept of Death in the Apostolic Fathers chapter 3 The Concept of Death in Valentinian Gnosticism, Apologists, and Polemicists chapter 4 Treatment of the Dead in the Second Century chapter 5 Conclusion Bibliography Index "
