Nature And The Vocabulary Of Nature In The Works Of Saint Cyprian

By Mary Tarcisia Ball

Book Overview

""Nature And The Vocabulary Of Nature In The Works Of Saint Cyprian"" by Mary Tarcisia Ball is a scholarly book that explores the use of nature and natural imagery in the writings of Saint Cyprian, a prominent Christian bishop and theologian of the third century. The book delves into Cyprian's use of language related to the natural world, including plants, animals, and landscapes, and how he used these images to convey theological concepts and moral lessons. Through close analysis of Cyprian's writings, Ball argues that his use of natural imagery reflects a deep appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the natural world, and that this appreciation is integral to his understanding of God's creation and the role of humanity within it. The book will be of interest to scholars of early Christian literature, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of religion and nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
