Theodore of Studium: His Life and Times is a biographical work by Alice Gardner that provides a comprehensive account of the life and legacy of Theodore of Studium, a prominent figure in the Byzantine Empire during the 9th century. The book delves into the historical context of Theodore's life, examining the political and religious climate of the era, as well as the theological controversies and debates that shaped his thinking.Gardner explores Theodore's early life and education, his rise to prominence as a monk and teacher, and his eventual appointment as abbot of the Studium monastery in Constantinople. The book also examines Theodore's role in the Iconoclastic Controversy, a heated debate over the use of religious icons that divided the Byzantine Empire for decades.Throughout the book, Gardner draws on a range of primary sources, including letters, sermons, and theological treatises, to provide a nuanced and detailed portrait of Theodore's life and work. She also situates Theodore within the broader context of Byzantine history, highlighting his contributions to the intellectual and cultural life of the empire.Overall, Theodore of Studium: His Life and Times is a rich and engaging biography that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Byzantine monasticism and theology, as well as the political and religious struggles of the era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
