Pagan Monotheism in Late Antiquity

Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1999. First edition. Hardcover. 8vo. 211pp. Dark blue cloth with gold lettering on spine in original printed dust jacket. "In this book various authors address the problem which lies at the heart of the religious and philosophical debate of late antiquity. Paganism was not a unified tradition and so the subjects that are discussed cover a wide social and intellectual spectrum. Particular emphasis is laid on such themes as monotheistic belief in the philosophy of late antiquity; its roots in classical antiquity and the Near East; monistic Gnosticism; the revelatory tradition as expressed in oracular literature in late antiquity; and the monotheistic trend in popular religion." Illustrated with b/w photographic reproductions and maps. Tail of spine slightly bumped. Some scuffing and creasing on dj. Sidelining in black and red ink throughout. Dust jacket and binding in very good, interior in good position. g. Item #26358
