Description

This book traces the history of the term 'charisma' -- and the various meanings assigned to it -- ­ from the first century to the twenty-first. From a marginalized religious concept in the first century to a widely used and popular term in the twenty-first century, this history explores the shifting cultural role of charisma over two millennia.
