Freeman narrates the development, diversity, and spread of Christianity with originality and verve. It is a story that brims over with fascinating accounts and illuminating historical analysis. This book is also a crucial resource for our understanding of all those theologico-political paradoxes that face us now more than ever. I do not think there exists a more engaging and illuminating history of early Christianity than this one.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Charles Freeman</note> <subject> <topic>Church history Primitive and early church, ca 30-600</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">270.1</classification> <classification authority="ddc">F855-C48</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780300125818</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13683/ea.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13683/ea.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071258.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
