The Recognitions: ʼΑναγνώσεις

by (Pseudo-)Clement

The Recognitions is one of the most fascinating and influential works of early Christian literature, blending theology, philosophy, and narrative into a vivid account of conversion and instruction in the apostolic age. Written as a spiritual autobiography, The Recognitions recounts Clement’s search for truth and his eventual encounter with the apostle Peter. Through dialogues, debates, and travel narratives, the work offers sustained reflection on philosophy, Scripture, morality, and the nature of God, presenting Christianity as the fulfillment of rational monotheism.
