Augustus to Constantine: The Rise and Triumph of Christianity in the Roman WorldWestminster John Knox Press, 01/01/2004 - 350 من الصفحات This masterful study of the early centuries of Christianity vividly brings to life the religious, political, and cultural developments through which the faith that began as a sect within Judaism became finally the religion of the Roman empire. First published in 1970, Grant's classic is enhanced with a new foreward by Margaret M. Mitchell, which assesses its importance and puts the reader in touch with the advances of current research. |
