CHST 765 - Orthodoxy and Heresy in Late Antiquity

3 credits
Title: Orthodoxy and Heresy in Late Antiquity This doctoral seminar has three broad goals: to examine the development of discourses of orthodoxy and heresy and genres of heresiology as a means of negotiating unity and difference among ancient Christians; to explore diversities of belief and practice within ancient Christianity; and to analyze trends in contemporary historiography with regard to issues of orthodoxy and heresy, unity and difference. We will give particular attention to (constructions of) Gnosticism and Arianism and their orthodox counterparts, while also attending to other controversies such as the Origenist, Priscillianist, Pelagian, and Nestorian.
