Making Christian History
University of California Press (Verlag)
9780520295360 (ISBN)
Eusebius’s text left its mark on Christian historical writing from late antiquity to the early modern period—across linguistic, cultural, political, and religious boundaries—until its encounter with modern historicism and postmodernism. Making Christian History demonstrates Eusebius’s vast influence throughout history, not simply in shaping Christian culture but also when falling under scrutiny as that culture has been reevaluated, reformed, and resisted over the past 1,700 years.
Michael J. Hollerich is Professor of Theology at the University of St. Thomas, author of Eusebius of Caesarea's Commentary on Isaiah, coeditor of the fourth edition of The Christian Theological Tradition, and translator of Erik Peterson's Theological Tractates.
