| Résumé : |
How do family metaphors increase understanding of the relationships between members of Christian communities?
The family is a central topic in recent discussion of Graeco-Roman antiquity. This volume contributes further to that discussion. Interacting with methods and models from sociology and social anthropology it offers original and diverse perspectives on the nature of the family in early Christianity and the use of family terms as metaphors for the relations between members of Christian communities. “Constructing Early Christian Families” presents a comprehensive, well-documented and timely insight into the social structures ol the early Christian world. |
