Document Details : Title: Severus of Antioch in Scetis Author(s): YOUSSEF, Youhanna N. Journal: Ancient Near Eastern Studies Volume: 43 Date: 2006 Pages: 142-163 DOI: 10.2143/ANES.43.0.2018768 Abstract : This article is divided into two parts. The first deals with the section of the life of Severus of Antioch attributed to Athanasius concerning his sojourn in Scetis where we will compare this part with the other historical sources. The second part studies a local tradition of Scetis mentioned in a letter of Severus of Antioch. This second part demonstrates clearly that this part of the life of Severus is authentic and is derived from first hand information, which Severus obtained about Scetis. |
