Description

For well over a millennium the civilization of Western Europe was 'Christendom,' with Christianity the dominant religion, buttressed by social and legal structures. This volume studies Christendom at its origins, bringing the insights of leading scholars in the fields of ancient history, theology, patristics, and liturgy to bear on aspects of Europe's Christianization. From a missiological perspective, the contributors ask what is Christianity's impact upon culture, what is culture's impact upon Christianity? Focusing on the first four centuries, but also looking forward to the future of Christianity in the West, this book combines scholarly excellence with accessibility. It will be valued by scholars and students alike.

Reviews

  • "The book has many strengths...[including] footnotes which include interaction with recent scholarship, the index and list of contributors enhance the value of the book" --Themelios

  • "This is an important book . . . stimulating and scholarly."--Theology

  • "A beautiful volume of collected essays...The result is a thought-provoking book: a collection of surveys of Christianity in the West in the first centuries of its existence, all addressing a specific research question, all chronologically covering the same substantial period but all doing this from a different viewpoint. To this can be added that the essays are invariably of high quality and written in an engaging style. The result is a very accessible book that can serve very well as supplementary reading for a course of Early Church History." Johan Leemans, Faculty of Theology, Leuven, Belgium, Heythrop Journal
