A comprehensive chronological account of the development of Christianity from its beginnings to the present day. It emphasises the dynamic and diverse currents that have shaped Christian thought and institutions, and Christianity's responses to the social, political and intellectual challenges of different historical and global contexts.
This series offers a comprehensive chronological account of the development of Christianity in all its aspects ­ theological, intellectual, social, political, regional, global ­ from its beginnings to the present day. Each volume makes a substantial contribution in its own right to the scholarship of its period and the complete History constitutes a major work of academic reference. Far from being merely a history of Western European Christianity and its offshoots, the History aims to provide a global perspective. Eastern and Coptic Christianity are given full consideration from the early period onwards, and later, African, Far Eastern, New World, South Asian and other non-European developments in Christianity receive proper coverage. The volumes cover popular piety and non-formal expressions of Christian faith and treat the sociology of Christian formation, worship and devotion in a broad cultural context. The question of relations between Christianity and other major faiths is also kept in sight throughout.
