Synopsis
Examines the beginning of the Christian movement during the first centureis AD, and the explosive force of its expansion throughout the Roman world., This revised and updated edition of the first volume of The Penguin History of the Church, examines the beginning of the Christian movement during the first centuries A.D., and the explosive force of its expansion throughout the Roman world., This first volume of the penguin history of the church looks at the beginning of the Christian movement during the first centuries AD and at the explosive force of its expansion throughout the Roman world. Drawing on recent historical research, Professor Henry Chadwock shows how Christianity had its roots in a synthesis of contemporary ideas and beliefs, and analyses the causes of its persecution under Diocletian, the fanaticism of its martyrs and its bitter internal controversies. The conversion of Constantine and the edict of Theodosius meant that the church had to reconcile its spiritual duties with a new, worldly role as an established church for good government throughout the empire, and Professor Chadwick completes his history by demonstrating how this conflict of responsiblilties led to the emergence of the papacy and the monastic movement, the twin pillars of Christianity in the Middle Ages., Examines the beginning of the Christian movement during the first centuries AD, and the explosive force of its expansion throughout the Roman world

    Great newspaper at great value! The newspaper arrived in great condition and as described by the seller. The shipping was very fast and the newspaper has accurate tracking while in transit. The packaging was very well done and the newspaper was unscathed upon arrival. Thank you to the seller for a great transaction. I look forward to doing business again in the future!

    Great communication and very well packaged — the seller used cardboard to protect the item (which is nearly 50 years old!) — much appreciated!! The item was in great condition and as described. The seller also provided shipping information and a link to track the shipment — also very much appreciated. A+ transaction!
