LATE ANCIENT CHRISTIANITY IN JOHANNESBURG

Series: A People's History Of Christianity Editor: Mary Farrell Bednarowski Publisher: Augsburg Fortress Publishers () ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good Binding: Hardcover with dust jacket Pages: 318 Dimensions: 24 x 18.5 x 2.8 cm +++ by Mary Farrell Bednarowski +++ This volume focuses on the everyday realities of the early Christians. Popular fiction, child rearing and toys, rituals of inclusion, the beginning of veneration of saints and shunning of heretics, the ascetic impulse, food practices - all these, and more lend color and texture to the story of Christianity in its formative stage.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
