Focusing on early Christian authors, this work explores how their actions and self-representation were influenced by the prevailing norms of Roman intellectual culture. It argues that external cultural factors played a significant role in shaping their perspectives, rather than solely relying on internal Christian dynamics. Through this lens, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the intersection between early Christianity and Roman society.
