Preview The Making of a Christian Aristocracy: Social and Religious Change in the Western Roman Empire
Description:
An impressive piece of work. Salzman has produced the most complete quantitative study of conversion of aristocrats to date. I particularly liked her concluding chapter on their influence on Christianity. She shows that fourth-century bishops adopted the rhetoric of nobility and honor in their preaching and writing in a way that appealed to aristocrats. (Elizabeth Clark, Duke University )
