More recently, however, a growing body of scholarship is revealing the degree to which identities in the late Roman world were fluid, blurred by ethnic, social, and gender differences. Christianness, for example, was only one of a plurality of identities available to Christians in this period. In Christians and Their Many Identities in Late Antiquity, North Africa, 200-450 CE, E?ric Rebillard explores how Christians in North Africa between the age of Tertullian and the age of Augustine were selective in identifying as Christian, giving salience to their religious identity only intermittently. By shifting the focus from groups to individuals, Rebillard more broadly questions the existence of bounded, stable, and homogeneous groups based on Christianness. In emphasizing that the intermittency of Christianness is structurally consistent in the everyday life of Christians from the end of the second to the middle of the fifth century, this book opens a whole range of new questions for the understanding of a crucial period in the history of Christianity"--Publisher's Web site. 606 $aChurch history$yPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600 606 $aChristian life$xHistory$yEarly church, ca. 30-600 607 $aAfrica, North$xChurch history 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChurch history 615 0$aChristian life$xHistory 676 $a276.1/02 700 $aRebillard$b E?ric$0183889 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462147003321 996 $aChristians and their many identities in late antiquity, North Africa, 200-450 CE$92463722 997 $aUNINA
