This book introduces a beautiful fourth-century Coptic discourse on love and self-control in its first English translation. The text's heading attributes it to Athanasius, bishop of Alexandria, but this attribution is questionable. Exploring issues of authorship and context, this book locates the origins of On Love and Self-Control in the Upper Egyptian Pachomian monastic community of the mid-fourth century. It then traces the various uses of On Love and Self-Control to the late eleventh and early twelfth centuries, when the single surviving manuscript was copied as part of an anthology at the Monastery of St. Shenoute of Atripe. A partial reconstruction of this now dismembered codex is provided.

Blue kitten heels
Size: 9.5, Color: Blue Leather
These are very pretty shoes with a comfortable heel height. The first time I wore them, they started slipping in the back. The strap that goes around the heel is not adjustable and they ended up flopping as I walked. I ordered my normal size and they fit perfectly so I couldn’t go down a size. Oh well…. Too late to return them.

A very comfortable shoe
Size: 7, Color: Brown Leather
I bought this in a size 7, and it fits beautifully. I normally wear a size 37-38 (European) or a size 8 (US) shoe for walking or jogging. The 3" heels on these shoes are well balanced, making it very comfortable to walk in. The color is a rich dark brown which was just what I wanted. In summary, they fit me good and I'm very glad I bought them.

Disappointing
Size: 7, Color: White Leather, Size: 7, Color: White Leather
Beware: the heel height is not 3 inches! The shoes are comfortable, but the material looks and feels like plastic! I would choose another color.

Elegant, beautiful design
Color: Black
It’s a beautiful bag limited to the size inside but for an elegant dinner engagement it is well worth the money
