Philosophy at the Festival: The Festal Orations of Gregory of Nazianzus and the Classical Tradition / / Byron MacDougall.
Gregory's festal orations are foundational for Byzantine literature. This book shows how besides his priestly role, Gregory plays that of a rhetor performing philosophy for a festival audience, channeling traditions of Classical philosophy and the Second Sophistic into Christian culture.
