Education in Late Antiquity offers the first comprehensive account of the Graeco-Roman debate on education between c. 300 and 550 CE. Jan Stenger traces changing attitudes towards the aims and methods of teaching, learning, and formation through the explicit and implicit theories developed by Christian and pagan writers during this period. Whereas the postclassical education system has been seen as an immovable and uniform field, Stenger argues that writers of the period offered substantive critiques of established formal education and tried to reorient ancient approaches to learning. Bringing together a wide range of discourses and genres, Education in Late Antiquity shows how educational thought was implicated in the ideas and practices of wider society, addressing central preoccupations of the time, including morality, religion, the relationship with others and the world, and concepts of gender and the self. The key idea was that education was a transformative process that gave shape to the entire being of a person, instead of merely imparting formal knowledge or skills. Thus, the debate revolved around attaining happiness, the good life, and fulfilment, and so orienting education toward the development of the notion of humanity within the person. By exploring the discourse on education, this book recovers the changing horizons of Graeco-Roman thought on learning and formation.

Learning Cities in Late Antiquity
The Local Dimension of Education

Education in the Graeco-Roman world was a hallmark of the polis. Yet the complex ways in which pedagogical theory and practice intersected with their local environments has not been much explored in recent scholarship. Learning Cities in Late Antiquity suggests a new explanatory model that helps to understand better how conditions in the cities shaped learning and teaching, and how, in turn, education had an impact on its urban context. Drawing inspiration from the modern idea of ‘learning cities’, the chapters explore the interplay of teachers, learners, political leaders, communities and institutions in the Mediterranean polis, with a focus on the well-documented city of Gaza in the sixth century CE. They demonstrate in detail that formal and informal teaching, as well as educational thinking, not only responded to specifically local needs, but also exerted considerable influence on local society. With its interdisciplinary and comparatist approach, the volume aims to contextualise ancient education, in order to stimulate further research on ancient learning cities. It also highlights the benefits of historical research to theory and practice in modern education.

Johannes Chrysostomos und die Christianisierung der Polis
"Damit die Städte Städte werden"

Tillfälligt slut
Können Christen in der antiken Polis gemäß ihrem Glauben leben? Dieser Frage stellten sich die Kirchenväter immer wieder. Eine besonders prominente Stimme in dieser Diskussion war die des Johannes Chrysostomos (ca. 349‒407), der in zwei der bedeutendsten Metropolen seiner Zeit, in Antiochia und Konstantinopel, wirkte. Johannes zählt zu den schärfsten Kritikern des urbanen Lebens in der Spätantike, vor allem der Theaterdarbietungen und Vergnügungen. Gleichzeitig musste er seinen Gemeinden Möglichkeiten aufzeigen, wie Christen den reinen Glauben in der Stadt bewahren und nach außen demonstrieren konnten. Jan R. Stenger untersucht das Bild des städtischen Raumes, das der Kirchenvater dabei entwarf, und die rhetorischen Strategien, mit denen er die Christianisierung und Humanisierung der klassischen Polis zu erreichen suchte. Er zeigt, dass die Stadt eine der zentralen Kategorien in Johannes' Theologie und Ansatzpunkt für die Verwirklichung einer christlichen Gesellschaft ist.
