Situated within the broader religious currents of the fourth to seventh centuries, this book shines new light on the nature of not only the holy man in late antiquity but also the Byzantine orthodoxy that would emerge in the Middle Ages and remains central to the churches of Greece and Eastern Europe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Phil Booth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520296192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520296190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.92d","brand":"Phil Booth","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44119768334591,"sku":"9780520296190","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7b85550c-15ae-4a0a-8157-853c51f3f198.jpg?v=1687410845","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/crisis-of-empire-phil-booth-9780520296190","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
