Christian Women and the Time of the Apostolic Fathers

"This volume considers issues surrounding Christian women in the period of the Apostolic Fathers, AD c. 80-160, in a period before a canon of Scripture existed or orthodoxy and heresy were defined in a variety of roles in the churches." "The book recovers, from scattered and often minimal evidence, insights into Christian women's lives in this formative period for the Christian church. Individual chapters deal with the politics of disorder in Corinth, Christian women in Rome and Christian women in Asia Minor. Clement's The Shepherd, Ignatius' letters to Asia Minor churches and many other writings - Christian and otherwise - provide insights for the subject."--BOOK JACKET.
