Biblical fun, 2022

First I run through the text as a whole and discuss the few known facts about the background of the text. Next I concentrate on the four final sections, which show some surprising features. These in turn bring me to concluding observations on the type of fun aimed at in this text. I argue that the Cena Cypriani consistently aims at playful irreverence and seems intended for a learned Christian readership. Some final remarks about the later reception of the text conclude the paper.

In the first part of this papier I examine the most important ones among them. This leads up to a second part, in which I discuss the authorship of the PPF as a whole. Contrary to what I argued some years ago, I suggest that Perpetua's 'diary' (as well as the entire document) has been written by a man.

It focuses on one of the most prolific writers of antiquity, St. Augustine. The sheer quantity of his works, the mass of books he wrote, inspires awe or even disbelief. The bulk of his writings comprises no less than sixteen massive volumes of the Patrologia Latina. 1 It seems nearly impossible for a single reader to read them completely in his or her lifetime. If anyone can be called an early Christian writer, it is surely Augustine.
