Book excerpt: "This volume explores how some of the most prominent philosophers and theologians of late antiquity conceptualize the idea that the divine is powerful. The period under consideration spans roughly four centuries (from the first to the fifth CE), which are of particular interest because they 'witness' the successive development and mutual influence of two major strands in the history of Western thought: Neoplatonism on the one hand, and early Christian on the other."--Introduction, p.
