Recenzje

With keen insight and indomitable good humor, Drake investigates the tumultuous period between Constantine ('the emperor who opened the door to Christianity') and Theodosius ('the one who slammed it shut on everybody else'). What factors fed the rise of the church? Christians, he urges, learned how to meaningfully-and strategically-narrate miracles. A pleasure to think with and a joy to read, A Century of Miracles belongs in your hands and on your bookshelf. Tolle, lege!
