Résumé : | How did the early Christian church manage to win its dominant place in the Roman world? In his newest book, an eminent historian of ancient Rome examines this question from a secular—rather than an ecclesiastical—viewpoint. MacMullen's provocative conclusion is that mass conversions to Christianity were based more on the appeal of miracles or the opportunity for worldly advantages than simply on a "rising tide of Christian piety." |
