In this volume, Brouria Has Spoken Wisely, specialists in the history of late Roman Christianity come together to honor their dear colleague, friend, and mentor Brouria Bitton-Ashkelony, the Martin Buber Professor of Comparative Religion at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Like the honoree herself, these scholars range across a broad historical terrain, investigating diverse developments in late antique pilgrimage, in Syriac mysticism, in eastern monasticism, and in other aspects of late antique Christianity. Tracing the effects of complex theological issues and ecclesiastical controversies on the shaping of late antique Christian identity, they bring to life this singular period that stretched from the twilight of the eastern Roman Empire to the rise of Islam.
