Excerpt from The Hunters of Euboea Dion was exiled by Domitian. At the beginning of Oration XII. He says: It was my misfortune to be banished for my reputed friendship with a man2 who was no scoundrel, but was rich and akin to the emperor, and lost his life on that account. After the death of Domitian he was recalled to court by Nerva, who was his personal friend. Trajan admired him also, and once, riding with the orator in the emperor's chariot, said to him: I do not know what you say; but I love you as myself.3 In his old age Dion returned to his native town of Prusa, for which he had already obtained many bene fits through his in uence at the capital, and there he seems to have lived until his death about 117 a.d.

The Discipleship Paradigm

Pages : 184
Book Description
This volume examines the Fourth Gospel narrative in terms of its character portrayal, especially the portrayal of anonymous characters. It focuses on how characterization impacts readers, eliciting their involvement in the narrative, particularly the recognition of and response to Jesus' identity, and how anonymity facilitates that participation. The first chapters examine the understanding of characterization in contemporary literary theory, then the author explores other contemporaneous narratives for the function of anonymous characters in those narratives. The final chapters examine specific character portrayals in the Fourth Gospel, demonstrating how the narratives of anonymous characters draw the reader into participation in the narrative and enables identification with those characters, especially the disciple Jesus loved, the Johannine paradigm of discipleship.
