Whereas previous studies have regarded Christians as marginal, insular, and often persecuted participants in this empire, Richard Payne demonstrates their integration into elite networks, adoption of Iranian political practices and imaginaries, and participation in imperial institutions. The rise of Christianity in Iran depended on the Zoroastrian theory and practice of hierarchical, differentiated inclusion, according to which Christians, Jews, and others occupied legitimate places in Iranian political culture in positions subordinate to the imperial religion. Christians, for their part, positioned themselves in a political culture not of their own making, with recourse to their own ideological and institutional resources, ranging from the writing of saints' lives to the judicial arbitration of bishops. In placing the social history of East Syrian Christians at the center of the Iranian imperial story, A State of Mixture helps explain the endurance of a culturally diverse empire across four centuries. 410 0$aTransformation of the classical heritage ;$v56. 606 $aChristianity and other religions$xZoroastrianism 606 $aChristianity and politics$zIran$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aZoroastrianism$xRelations$xChristianity 606 $aChristians$zIran$xSocial conditions$yTo 1500 607 $aIran$xCivilization$yTo 640 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChristianity and other religions$xZoroastrianism. 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory 615 0$aZoroastrianism$xRelations$xChristianity. 615 0$aChristians$xSocial conditions 676 $a275.5/03 700 $aPayne$b Richard E.$f1981-$0985171 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460709603321 996 $aA state of mixture$92462087 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02637nam 2200493 450 001 9910793032803321 005 20231226050026.0 010 $a1-4985-7474-2 035 $a(CKB)4100000006096221 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5492313 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000006096221 100 $a20190227d2018 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aIdentities on trial in the United States $easylum seekers from Asia /$fChorSwang Ngin ; foreword by David W.
