Samenvatting

The author examines early Christian rhetorical language and its broader religious and cultural contexts. The tension of the dual subjectivity emerging in the asceticism of the heart and the ideological and material aspects of Christian imperialism in the context of the Holy Land and Constantinople takes the reader into new intellectual territory.
