Description

What did it take to cause the Roman aristocracy to turn to Christianity, changing centuries-old beliefs and religious traditions? Salzman takes a fresh approach to this much-debated question by focusing on a sampling of individual aristocratic men and women as well as on writings and archeological evidence.
