Author: VAN SLYKE, DANIEL
Title: Quodvultdeus of Carthage the Apocalyptic Theology of a Roman African in Exile
Description: St Pauls Publications, 2003. Paperback. ISBN: 0957748361. This study provides a fresh analysis of the ancient evidence and the modern scholarship on Quodvultdeus, the bishop of Carthage who was exiled by the Vandals in AD 439. It highlights his apocalyptic theology, showing how he selectively appropriates the eschatological thought of previous Christian authors such as Jerome and Orosius. Particular attention is paid to Augustine's influence on Quodvultdeus in order to draw out the independence of the latter's thought. ; Early Christian Studies 5; 344 pages.
