From Pre-reformation to the present day / John D. Woodbridge and Frank A. James III | 摘 要 註 | Church History offers a contextual view of how the Christian church spread and developed. It did so not in a vacuum, but in a setting of times, cultures, and events that both influenced and were influenced by the church. Church History looks closely at the integral link between the history of the world and that of the church. The first volume explores the development of the church from the days of Jesus to the years prior to the Reformation. Filled with maps, charts, and illustrations,
it offers overviews of the Roman, Greek, and Jewish worlds; insights into the church's relationship to the Roman empire, with glimpses into pagan attitudes toward Christians; the place of art and architecture, literature and philosophy, both sacred and secular; and much more, spanning the time from the first through the thirteenth centuries. Volume two displays the growth of the church from just prior to the Reformation through the next five-hundred-plus years into the present. Filled wi
th maps, charts, and illustrations, it is an account of the ups and downs, the triumphs and struggles, of the Christian movement, offering a unique contextual view of the cultural, intellectual, and political contexts of the Christian church | ISBN | 9780310257431 | ISBN | 9780310205807 (v. 1 : alk. paper) | ISBN | 0310257433 (v. 2 : alk. paper) | ISBN | 9780310257431 | LCCN | 2004020348 |
