In the theological skies of both the Greek and the Latin Church between the seventh and the fourteenth centuries usually know as the Middle Ages, a number of remarkable men appeared. They centered their lives in Christ and searched for an understanding of the faith which they shared and which their forebears had carefully explained over the first five centuries of Christianity. Yet in the process of trying to understand christian doctrine, the two great halves of Christendom grew apart. Differences in language and events led to differences of emphasis, teaching and practice, and sometimes to conflict. Written for readers with no background in theology or medieval history, Many Mansions brings to life this colorful and exciting period in the history of the Church. Understandings and misunderstandings which continue into the present day are carefully treated in easily understood terms. Illustrations taken from the periods and places under discussion provide visual reinforcement to the narrative.

Paper Back. Condición: New. ometimes an instructor has to become a textbook writer: the right text is not available for the course, so the instructor has to write it. Teacher/author David Bell doesn't assume previous knowledge on the part of his readers, and he emphasizes the word 'introductory.' Many Mansions, as Bell describes it, examines 'selected themes of medieval Church doctrine as they were developed' in the Latin West and Byzantine East, from the eighth century to the fourteenth centuries, so that we are taken up through the development of scholastic theology in the West and the synthesis of Palamas in the East. As an introductory text, this book is excellent: if you haven't studied the history of doctrine before, or if you are teaching people who haven't, or if you simply want a fresh perspective on ground well-trodden-Many Mansions deserves your attention.
