Patristics in Australia: current status and future potential

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference proceeding contribution › peer-review

Abstract

The purpose of this presentation is to offer an overview of the history, development, current status, and future currents within patristics in Australia. I cover seven basic areas: 1. the location of patristics in secular or religious institutions of higher learning; 2. areas of scholarly strength; 3. trends in the discipline(s) of patristics including the endangered species of biblical languages; 4. journals and publishers devoted to patristics; 5. patristic societies and conferences; 6. funding for research activities in patristics (including opportunities for postgraduates and visiting fellows). I close with some speculations on the future of patristics in Australia, which faces economic and cultural challenges that are not unique to it alone.
