It provides a superb overview of the vast historical process by which Christianity was Hellenized and Hellenic civilization became Christianized.Werner Jaeger shows that without the large postclassical expansion of Greek culture the rise of a Christian world religion would have been impossible. He explains why the Hellenization of Christianity was necessary in apostolic and postapostalic times; points out similarities between Greek philosophy and Christian belief; discuss such key figures as Clement, Origen, and Gregory of Nyssa; and touches on the controversies that led to the ultimate complex synthesis of Greek and Christian thought.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 210mmItem Length: 137mmItem Weight: 200gAuthor: Werner JaegerGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityItem Width: 10mmRelease Year: 1985 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
