Poverty and Leadership in the Later Roman Empire
ISBN: 9781584651468 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In three magisterial essays, Peter Brown, one of the world's foremost scholars of the society and culture of late antiquity, explores the emergence in late Roman society of "the poor" as a distinct social class, one for which the Christian church claimed a special responsibility.

In his characteristically elegant and lucid prose, Brown seeks to recover the pre-Christian status...
