Early Christianity and Classical Culture (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the early history and development of Christianity, spanning its origins through the medieval period. It begins with an in-depth analysis of the roots of Christianity, focusing on the life of Jesus, the apostolic foundations, and the rise of Christian communities within the Roman Empire. The initial chapters trace the transformation of Christianity from a persecuted sect to an established religion under Constantine, examining key moments such as the Edict of Milan and the Council of Nicaea, which helped shape the theological and institutional foundations of the Church.

As the Church expanded, it encountered challenges from both within and outside its ranks. The book explores the theological disputes that arose, such as the Arian controversy, and the way these debates led to the consolidation of Christian orthodoxy. It also examines the increasing role of the papacy, the evolution of Christian worship, the spread of monasticism, and the Church's engagement with Roman and later Byzantine political structures.
