The Roman and Christian discourses in conflictHeyman, George1954-creatorauthor.textbibliographyElectronic books.Electronic books.dcuWashington, D.CCatholic University of America Press©20072007monographiceng1 online resource (xxv, 256 pages)"In this work, George Heyman offers a fresh perspective on the similarities between pagan Roman and Christian thinking about the public role of sacrifice in the first two and a half centuries of the Christian era. He shows that both imperial Rome and early Christianity capitalized on the rhetoric of sacrifice as a discursive means to craft their location, their identity, and their social power within the cosmos."--Jacket.Roman religion and sacrificial practice -- The Roman imperial cult -- The New Testament and the discourse of sacrifice -- The sacrifice of the martyr -- Conclusions.George Heyman.Includes bibliographical references (pages 237-252) and index.Use copy Restrictions unspecified star MiAaHDLElectronic reproduction.
