| Tóm tắt/ chú giải | : | The present study seeks to depict the patristic attitude towards the person and office of the Roman Emperor in the fourth century. Particular attention is paid to letters, speeches, panegyrics, and the like, which were addressed directly to the Emperor. The language employed by the Fathers in these addresses is described and analyzed where it contributes to an understanding of the place of the Emperor in Christian thought of the century in which Christianity achieved official victory over the religions which had been its rivals in the Empire. Titles of address to the Emperor are listed in full and discussed; the usage of one Father is compared to or contrasted with that of another. Where the attitude of the Fathers as expressed in works directed to the Emperor is at variance with what they say of the Emperor in works not intended for the latter's perusal, the fact is considered, and we shall note the very discernible effect the Sacred Presence had upon the expressed attitude of certain Fathers, most notably Sts. Athanasius and Hilary of Poitiers, towards the anointed of God. |
