'Natural Disasters in the
Sixth-Century Chronicle of
Pseudo-Joshua'
By Fr. Peter Farrington
14/03/10

Fr. Peter Farrington explores an Orthodox Christian response to such questions as inferred from a fascinating firsthand account, attributed to St Joshua the Stylite, of the political and natural disasters that struck the ancient city of Edessa in the sixth century.
