Abstract

"This wide ranging study of late antique education explores the intellectual and doctrinal milieux of the two great cities of Athens and Alexandria to shed new light on the interaction between the pagan cultural legacy and Christianity. Where as previous scholarship has seen Christian reactions to pagan educational culture as the product of an empire wide process of development. Edward J. Watts crafts two narratives that reveal how differently education was shaped by the local power structures and urban contexts of each city."--BOOK JACKET.
