Copertina de David M. Olster: Roman Defeat, Christian Response, and the Literary Construction of the Jew (PDF)

Olster explores Byzantine Christian reactions to the catastrophic Persian and Arab invasions, challenging long-held assumptions that divided ‘religious’ from ‘secular’ literature and exempted religion from contemporary social, political, and intellectual discourse.
