EARLY CHRISTIANITY AND ANCIENT ASTROLOGY - TIMO...

Early Christianity and Ancient Astrology explores a variety of responses to astrology  the most
popular form of divination among early Christians in Greco-Roman antiquity. After a brief
overview of ancient astrological theory and a survey of polemical responses to it  this book
documents instances in which early Christian writers and communities incorporated astrology
positively into their beliefs and practices. This study is of interest to students of early
Christianity and of Greco-Roman religion and to those concerned with interfaith relations or
with issues of Christian unity and diversity. It is particularly recommended for use in courses
on the history of Christianity and on the religions of Greco-Roman antiquity.
