Download or read book Late Ancient Christianity written by Virginia Burrus and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How has Christianity through the ages actually been lived and experienced by ordinary Christians? To address this question, this volume shifts the focus from various Christian elites, whether clerical or theological or political, to "average" people. Centered on the Roman imperial period, twelve historians search for clues to the everyday realities of Christians' lives in the era when Christianity grew from marginal sect to dominant religion. Popular fiction, childrearing and toys, rituals of inclusion, veneration of saints and shunning of heretics, the ascetic impulse, feast days and festivals--all these and more lend color and texture to the story of a "people's" Christianity in this formative stage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Latin Christianity, Vol. 2: Including That of the Popes to the Pontificate of Nicolas V The seventh century of Christianity was destined to behold a new religious revolution, only inferior in the extent of its religious and social influence to Christianity itself. Christianity might seem, notwithstanding her internal dissensions, while slowly subduing the whole of Europe, to be still making gradual encroachments in Asia, and at least to apprehend no formidable invasion within her own frontier. The conflict which had raged on the eastern boundaries of the Roman world, in which at one time the Persians had become masters of Syria and plundered the religious treasures of Jerusalem, was a war of the two empires of Rome and Persia, not of Christianity and Fire-worship. The danger which threatened the Byzantine empire, and which, if unaverted, would have yielded up Asia, and even Constantinople, to the followers of Zoroaster, had been arrested by the great military ability and enterprise of Heraclius, the successor of the tyrant Phocas on the throne. But though Persian conquest, had it spread over Asia Minor and Syria and into Europe, might have brought on a dangerous collision with the religion of the conquerors, yet the issue could not eventually have been fatal, even to the dominance of Christianity.

Book excerpt: Every social or religious movement, to survive, needs to create structures and develop standards of life and organization, which allow its continuation and strengthen the effectiveness of its mission. Numerical growth and the geographic expansion of Christianity required Christian communities to become quite creative. Detached from its Jewish matrix and its original environment, and influenced by new living conditions, the church's institutions and practices developed gradually. These developments reflect the various social settings in which they were born, consequently, the author notes the diversity of customs across regions. This volume intends to offer an overview of the birth and development of Ancient Christianity's institutions and practices in their variety and diversity.
