Bøker av Colin Henderson (Honorary Fellow Roberts

In "The Codex", published in 1954, C H Roberts studied the process by which in the early centuries of our era the roll as the vehicle for literature was replaced by the codex. The authors offer a different explanation for the remarkable part in the transformation played by the early Church.

The origins and development of the Church in Egypt remain one of the vexed problems of early Christian history. Dr C. H. Roberts examines the evidence of the Christian papyri discovered in Egypt to see what light they cast on the problems, and how far they support statements in our ancient authorities or the theories of modern scholars.
