Sarah Pearce

I have become aware of the homepage of Sarah Pearce, Senior Lecturer in History at the University of Southampton. She has published several articles on Philo, and is now on the marked with a new book on Philo.

I have to add her on my Philo research page, as she sureley belongs there on my list of those publishing on Philo.

Reading her homepage, I'll like to draw my readers attention to the following works that are directly related to Philo:‘Belonging and Not Belonging: Local Perspectives in Philo of Alexandria’, in S. Jones and S. Pearce (eds), Jewish Local Patriotism and Self-Identification in the Graeco-Roman Period, Sheffield University Press,1998, pp. 79-105.

‘Jerusalem as Mother City in the Writings of Philo of Alexandria’, in J. Barclay (ed.), Negotiating Diaspora: Jewish Strategies in the Roman Empire, T&T Clark, 2004, pp. 19-36.

'King Moses: Notes on Philo's Portrait of Moses as an Ideal Leader in the Life of Moses', in E.Gannagé, P.Crone, M. Aouad, D. Gutas, E. Schütrumpf (eds), The Greek Strand in Islamic Political Thought, Mélanges de l'Université Saint-Joseph, Beirut, Volume LVII (2004), pp. 37-74.

‘Philo on the Nile’, in J. Frey and D. Schwartz (eds), Jewish Identity in the Greco-Roman World, Brill, 2007, pp. 137-157.
