Descripción
Sumario:Danish theologian Simon Schmidt’s book explores, but does not attempt to resolve, the perennial question of what it means for Christians to be “in the world but not of it” by reviewing three paradigmatic interpretations of the so-called Constantinian shift. Adopting a “postliberal” stance toward theology, including church history, as a discipline of the church, Schmidt offers close readings of Eusebius of Caesarea’s Vita Constantini, Augustine’s City of God, and three essays by John Howard Yoder. Schmidt is interested both in what each author’s account of Constantine says about the church-world relation, and in the theological character of their historiographies.
