| Résumé : |
This book is a collection of nearly 175 documents—from saints, emperors, philosophers, satirists, inscriptions, graffiti, and other interesting types—that shed light on the complex fabric of religious belief as it changed from a variety of non-Judeo-Christian movements to Christianity in late antiquity. These texts illuminate and bring to life the bizarre and the banal aspects of the social world of the Roman Empire, the world in which Christianity ultimately gained preeminence.
This treasury of texts leads the reader through the matrix of beliefs among which Christianity grew. It includes both Christian and non-Christian sources, avoiding a common but obscuring division between the two. The material is presented as a single flow that satisfies natural curiosity and whets the reader's appetite for more. |
