Vasiliki Limberis is Associate Professor of Religion. She received her doctorate from Harvard. Dr. Limberis is trained in the History of Ancient Christianity and is fascinated by the interplay of religious cultures -- pagan, Christian, Jewish -- in the first five centuries of the common era. Her teaching reflects a wide variety of themes, but invariably lands on the two most volatile centuries, the first and the fourth, when the power of the Roman state brings the most to bear on the varieties of religions in the Mediterranean. In addition, her teaching interests have expanded to include the visual arts of the period, iconography, sculptural arts, Roman painting, and mosaics. Dr. Limberis' main topic of research is the Cappadocian Fathers. She is currently researching the imbrication of "family" in Late Antiquity and Christianity.
