520	1		_a"Introducing Early Christianity offers a fascinating survey of the most important aspects of the life, beliefs and practices of the early church from the first to the mid-fifth century." "The thematic approach of this book seeks to overcome the limitations of viewing one event after another, though it can be effectively used alongside a chronological history. Numerous sidebars assemble pertinent facts or offer close-up glimpses of particular aspects of the life and thought of the early church. In addition, photographs and other images root early Christians, their ideas and events in the concrete artifacts of history and the visual memory of the church."--Jacket.
