For scholars interested in Christian history and missions

Sheds light on conversion processes in ancient societies

You will gain insights into faith transformation in Europe

This book explores the impact of Christianity on Germanic kingdoms.

A study of mission and conversion among the Germanic kingdoms, this book traces the transformation of the late antique world into medieval Europe through the acceptance of Christianity. It is grounded in contemporary anthropological discourses, and focuses on the encounter between the Christian missionaries and the Germanic kings, an encounter which resulted in a shift in belief concerning the ultimate sources of power. The forms of Christianity developed by the converted are seen in the context of their pre-Christian beliefs and the need for continuity amongst change.
