Download or read book Christian Identity Formation Across the Elbe in the Tenth and Eleventh Centuries written by Mihai Dragnea and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2021 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the conversion of the Wends, and how Christian writers of the tenth and eleventh centuries perceived the submission of the Wends to the Christian faith. The main concern of the ecclesiastical authorities was to bring the apostate Wends back into the imperium Christianum: everyone who had accepted Christian baptism had to be prevented by all possible means from religious and political apostasy. More widely, the formation of a Christian identity is an excellent example of how conversion was a fluid set of propositions, discussed and rehearsed, influenced by many factors (not just canonical), and deployed in many contexts. This book's task is to unravel how this dynamism played out against a marginal group.
