Description
Book Synopsis
The first volume of a magisterial survey of the entire history of the Christian tradition, this volume focusing on the emergence of Catholicism In this five-volume opus Jaroslav Pelikan traces the development of Christian doctrine from the first century to the twentieth.
From the Back Cover
The Emergence of the Catholic Tradition is the history of this critical, troubled time. Pelikan focuses upon the subtle relation between what the faithful believed, what teachers--both orthodox and heretical--taught, and what the church confessed as dogma during its first six centuries of growth. In constructing his work, Pelikan has made use of exegetical and liturgical sources in addition to the usual polemical, apologetic, and systematic or speculative materials.Review Quotes
"Pelikan's The Christian Tradition [is] a series for which they must have coined words like 'magisterial'."--Martin Marty "Commonweal"
