What does St. Augustine mean with the expression "place of unlikeness"

History
1 answer:
anastassius [24]3 years ago

Answer:

its like a womb

where he would turn more religious

Explanation:

in his article “Body Double: Saint Augustine and the Sexualized

Will,” James Wetzel offers the complementary suggestion that a key

metaphor for Book 7 is that of a womb.10 When Augustine turns inward,

he finds himself in a place of unlikeness. There, Wetzel writes, “he is

unlike God, who is presumptively spirit, and unlike the created order,

which is presumptively material.”11 In that place of unlikeness,

Augustine hears God’s voice from on high: “I am the food of the mature;

grow then, and you will eat me. You will not change me into yourself

like bodily food: you will be changed into me” (7.10.16)

How did the Byzantine Empire have a lasting influence on European culture?
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Byzantine Empire influenced many cultures, primarily due to its role in shaping Christian Orthodoxy. The modern-day Eastern Orthodox Church is the second largest Christian church in the world. Orthodoxy is central to the history and societies of Greece, Bulgaria, Russia, Serbia, and other countries.

Byzantine architecture, particularly in religious buildings, can be found in diverse regions from Egypt to Russia. During the Byzantine Renaissance—from 867 to 1056—art and literature flourished. Artists adopted a naturalistic style and complex techniques from ancient Greek and Roman art and mixed them with Christian themes. Byzantine art from this period had a strong influence on the later painters of the Italian Renaissance.

In the period following the sacking of Constantinople in 1204 and the fall of Constantinople in 1453, people migrated out of Constantinople. Among these emigrants were many Byzantine scholars and artists, including grammarians, poets, writers, musicians, astronomers, architects, artists, scribes, philosophers, scientists, politicians and theologians.

The exodus of these people from Constantinople contributed to the revival of Greek and Roman studies, which led to the development of the Renaissance in humanism and science. Byzantine emigrants also brought to western Europe the better preserved and accumulated knowledge of their own Greek civilization.
