Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback book in better than very good condition: firm and square with strong joints. Just showing a tiny 5mm nick to the upper corner, otherwise as new. Hence a non-text page shows a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book looks and feels unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight. And so a very nice book in great condition, now offered for sale at a reasonable price. Seller Inventory # 211645

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History, written in the early fourth century, continues to serve as our primary gateway to a crucial three hundred year period: the rise of early Christianity under the Roman Empire. In this volume, James Corke-Webster undertakes the first systematic study considering the History in the light of its fourth-century circumstances as well as its author's personal history, intellectual commitments, and literary abilities. He argues that the Ecclesiastical History is not simply an attempt to record the past history of Christianity, but a sophisticated mission statement that uses events and individuals from that past to mould a new vision of Christianity tailored to Eusebius' fourth-century context. He presents elite Graeco-Roman Christians with a picture of their faith that smooths off its rough edges and misrepresents its size, extent, nature, and relationship to Rome. Ultimately, Eusebius suggests that Christianity was - and always had been - the Empire's natural heir. Argues that our main narrative source for early Christianity, the Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius of Caesarea, is not simply a record of Christian experience in the first three centuries but a sophisticated mission statement that uses Christianity's past to mould a new vision of the church for Eusebius' fourth-century context.
