Being Christian in Vandal Africa - Robin Whelan - Bog

Bag om Being Christian in Vandal Africa

"Whelan's writing is a joy to read. Being Christian in Vandal Africa makes a genuine and substantial contribution to a field of study that has seen a great deal of exciting activity in recent years. Whelan complements a firm mastery of existing secondary scholarship with deft and sensitive readings of previously understudied primary materials. This is a tremendous book."--Andy Merrills, Associate Professor of Ancient History, University of Leicester "This splendid book is, quite simply, the finest discussion of religion in the Vandal kingdom that I have read. The analysis presented here challenges us to rethink religious controversy not just in Africa but across the post-Roman West."--Jonathan P. Conant, Associate Professor of History, Brown University "This is a remarkable first book by a young scholar. . . . it skillfully analyzes Christian texts from Vandal North Africa that have not received enough attention but which, as Whelan masterly shows, nevertheless constitute a significant contribution to the understanding of the period. . . . I highly recommend his book to anyone working on early Christianity."--Bryn Mawr Classical Review
