Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Claudius Marius Victorius, ein Rhetor aus Marseille, schrieb wohl in der 1. Halfte des 5. Jahrhunderts ein Bibelepos in lateinischen Hexametern mit dem Titel Alethia (“Wahrheit”). Die Alethia besteht in ihrer uberlieferten Form aus drei Buchern, die die ersten 19 Kapitel der Genesis bis zur Zerstorung von Sodom und Gomorrha nacherzahlen und kommentieren. Dabei wird die Handlung auf wenige Protagonisten konzentriert, um den disparaten Stoff in einer einheitlichen Linie erzahlen zu konnen: Adam und Eva (Buch 1), Kain und Noah (Buch 2), Noahs Sohne und Abraham (Buch 3). Victorius ist besonders an Fragen der kulturellen Entwicklung der Menschheit interessiert, dem Thema der Erkenntnisfahigkeit des Menschen fur das Gottliche sowie der gottlichen Gute und Fursorge, insbesondere angesichts von gottlichen Strafmassnahmen. Themen wie freier Wille, gottliche Gnade und menschliches Verdienst werden im Kontext semipelagianischer Positionen behandelt. In der vorliegenden Ausgabe wird der Text der Alethia zum ersten Mal ins Deutsche ubersetzt und ausfuhrlich kommentiert, wahrend die Einleitung alle wichtigen Fragen der Entstehung sowie des historischen und literaturgeschichtlichen Kontextes dieses spatantiken Bibelepos behandelt.
