Index
This book is a collection of studies about the fascinating figure of Thecla and the
development of her cult in East and West. The volume starts with a series of four
studies that trace her cult and its literary manifestations from late Antiquity to
Byzantine times. We follow her cult from Asia Minor, through Syria, to Turfan in modern
Western China, although the autonomy and uniqueness of Thecla was often suppressed
in these new localities. From the East we move to the West where her figure appears
in Latin texts and a previously unpublished Arabic version of the 'Acts of Paul and
Thecla'. Subsequently, three chapters analyse representations of Thecla in Turkish
Ayatekla (ancient Seleucia), in the grotto of St Paul in Ephesus and in Coptic iconography.
From the East we then move back to the West, particularly to Spain. Thecla's cult
was brought from Asia Minor via Armenia to Tarragona, where it remains alive today.
The last two chapters look at the historiographical trajectories of the 'Acts of Paul
and Thecla' and the testimonies of the Christian martyrs, respectively. As has become
customary, the volume concludes with an extensive bibliography and detailed index
