Out Here Down Under is a collection of documents and papers illuminating the development and character of ancient history as a discipline in the Antipodes. It considers especially the distinctive and extraordinarily popular program, championed by E. A. Judge, of studying classical and biblical corpora together under one discipline, with an emphasis on the interpretation of documentary sources. In twenty chapters, this volume considers such issues as the relationship between British and Antipodean scholarship, the story and legacy of Antipodean scholars of the ancient world, the nature and ideology of ancient history programs at schools and universities (especially in NSW and at Macquarie), the interaction between biblical and classical disciplines, and the function of history in contemporary Australia. These texts, mostly written by Judge himself throughout his career, appear here with new introductory notes outlining their historical significance for the discipline and Judge''s own practice. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2020

The command of the risen Christ was to make students of all nations: "e;On this Rock I will build . . ."e; But the spread of the Pentecostal gospel disrupted the national values of eternal Rome, with her increasingly international citizenship. Loyalty to the Caesars, obligatory in the Roman world, could not break the Christians' trust in their Christ. In despair the government gave in to the unimaginable: Galerius tolerated the Christian "e;alternative communities"e; and their divergent outlook on life. One must now tolerate living in two incommensurate communities at once. This is at the heart of Late Antiquity. The Rock remains, but masked in the antique ceremonial of "e;religion."e; That late antique compromise has laid the foundation for the interaction of church and state in the modern West. Successor to Paul and the Conflict of Cultures (2019), this seventh collection of Judge's historical essays explores the development of Christianity in Roman society from the New Testament era to the time of Constantine and beyond--always with a view to the modern situation.
