| Summary, etc |
<br/><br/><br/>520 The Encyclopedia of the Early Church is a two-volume <br/> reference work providing concise and precise information <br/> on all topics concerning the first eight centuries of <br/> Christianity. Valuable to historians, archaeologists, <br/> philosophers, and philologists as well as theologians, <br/> this work extends the knowledge of how Christianity <br/> evolved to become the most important influence in the <br/> history of Western civilization. Tracing the growth of the<br/> church from its tiny beginnings in an upper room to its <br/> dominance of Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa in <br/> the eighth century, scholars from many disciplines <br/> produced articles ranging from a few sentences to ten <br/> thousand words on all the major and most of the minor <br/> people, works, ideas, and issues of the formative period <br/> of Christianity. The first major encyclopedia to cover the<br/> life, thought, and growth of Christianity, this work <br/> offers full treatment of doctrines, creeds, and heresies, <br/> of iconography and art history, of archaeology and <br/> geography, and of monasticism and asceticism <br/> |
