Pagans and Christians in the Mediterranean World: From the Second Century AD to the Conversion of Constantine
Robin Lane FoxThis scholarly work, from award-winning historian Robin Lane Fox, places Christians and pagans side by side in the context of civic life and contrasts their religious experiences, visions, cults and oracles. Leading up to the time of the first Christian emperor, Constantine, the book aims to enlarge and confirm the value of contemporary evidence, some of which has only recently been discovered.
"This brilliant book is a wholly unexpected and central contribution to its subject. What is more it is readable and rereadable, even gripping". (Peter Levi, "Spectator"). "Important and learned". ("Financial Times"). "A massive and humane study...On my shelf it will rest with pride between Edward Gibbon and Peter Brown". ("Telegraph"). "On the one hand a magisterial analysis and reconstruction of an apparently remote and alien society, on the other a detailed study of the single most significant process in our history". ("The Times").
