Examines the relationship between early Christian thought and Hellenic philosophical traditions by considering the extent to which fundamental Christian beliefs were formulated in a Hellenic context, questioning Fr Georges Florovsky's claim of ""Hellenism"" being ""the perennial category and pattern of Christian thought and life."

"This book is for scholars and students of the ideas, literatures, and cultures of early Christianity and late antiquity, ancient philosophers, and historians of theology. It offers new perspectives on early Christian modes of knowing and ordering knowledge in relation to changing discourses, institutions, and material culture of late antiquity"--
