Synopsis :

This reader in early Christianity presents, all the writings known to have been produced by Christian authors during the first century of the church (30-130 AD). Along with the New Testament itself, there can be found non-canonical Gospels, Acts, Epistles, and Apocalypses, along with other significant Christian writings. Using up-to-date and readable translation and providing introductions to each text, this reader is aimed at the layperson, student and scholar alike - anyone interested in the New Testament and earliest Christianity.

Présentation de l'éditeur: This is the second edition of the most comprehensive anthology available on early Christian writing, which includes virtually every piece produced during the first 100 years of Christian history. Ehrman provides an opening general introduction in which he shows how the canon of the New Testament was formulated and how other texts were excluded from the canon. He also provides brief up-to-date introductions to each of the texts, incorporating the most recent scholarship. For this edition the Martyrdom of Polycarp has been added and many of the older translations have been replaced with newer and more up-to-date versions.
