Christianity and the Rhetoric of Empire: The Development of Christian Discourse - Sather Classical Lectures
Averil Cameron
Asking how Christianity succeeded in becoming the dominant ideology in the unpromising circumstances of the Roman Empire, the author turns to the development of Christian discourse over the first to sixth centuries AD, investigating its essential characteristics, its effects on existing forms of communication, and its eventual preeminence.
