PREFACE
This book aims at being both a Festschrift and an inspiring collection of
studies. Its intention is to present a manifest appreciation of the work of
an eminent scholar on the one hand and to stimulate further studies in
the fields of research he excelled in on the other hand.
Johannes van Oort started his scholarly career in the beginning of the
1980s. He initially qualified as a teacher, but subsequently, while working
as a part-time teacher and as the editor of an educational periodical,
he first studied classical languages and then theology at Utrecht University.
It was there that, after finishing his theological studies, he almost
immediately obtained a position, first in religious education and after that
in his most beloved field of research: historical theology. In the course
of the years his focus shifted from Reformation studies to Patristics in
general and St Augustine in particular. From Augustine he also moved
to Manichaeism, and from Manichaeism to other Gnosticism. In all his
studies the inner drive was constituted by the adagium he found put into
words by both Augustine and his Manichaean opponents: the classical
and perennial aspiration of uertitatem quaerere,thesearchfortruth. 1
A fair impression of van Oort’s career is provided by the overview
of his publications and many related activities listed elsewhere in this
Festschrift. Here, some other personal characteristics may be highlighted.
For several decades—first in Utrecht and later on also in Nijmegen and
Pretoria—he enthusiastically introduced generations of students to the
richness of Augustine’s thought and the charming beauty of his language.
Moreover, he also expressed this enthusiasm in a series of poems published
in 1993 and later set to music by the Utrecht Conservatorium composer
Theo Teunissen. More recently the same honour befell his translation
of the Gospel of Judas: such was its stylistic appeal that the Frisian
composer Leo Köhlenberg decided to write an oratorium based on this
rendition; it will appear in print in both a Dutch and an English version
in 2010 (www.intradamusic.nl) and the premiere is scheduled for early
2011. A distinguishing feature of Johannes van Oort’s research is not only
its enduring quality that found its expression in a remarkable number of
1 Cf. e.g. C. Fort. II; Conf. III, 6, 10; C. Felicem I, 13.

x preface
reprints of his books and other publications, but also his emphasis on a
clear and polished diction. In his capacity as book review editor of Vigiliae
Christianae he more than once felt himself obliged to complain of the
real flood of hastily written and badly composed publications.
The original stimulus for the publication of this Festschrift was van
Oort’s stepping down as President of the International Association of
Manichaean Studies in early September 2009. This event happily coincided
with his reaching the age of sixty. Members of the IAMS working
in his specific fields of research as well as a number of other scholars
and friends were invited to contribute to the volume, a preliminary
copy of which could be presented at the end of the Seventh International
Conference of Manichaean Studies in the Chester Beatty Library
in Dublin. Later on a number of other colleagues requested to become
part of the venture. The result is a book of studies in four sections reflecting
the most important areas of van Oort’s research interests: Augustine,
Manichaeism, and ‘other’ Gnosticism.
At the special request of the honorandus this is not so much a laudatory
volume as it is a book of stimulating studies. Turning sixty is, so it is
hoped, not the end of an illustrious career but a memorable point in time
which will provide the incentive for new research pursued together with
old and new colleagues and friends. In multos annos!
The editors wish to thank the many contributors, and also Einar
Thomassen,withwhomJohannesvanOortdirectstheseriesNagHammadi
