Arbeiten zur Kirchengeschichte first began publication in 1925 and can claim to be one of the
most tradition-rich historical book series. It presents research on the history of Christian
churches and dogmas through the ages but also publishes papers on related disciplines such as
archeology history of art and literary studies. One of the series leading features is its
consistent striving to combine historical-methodical precision with systematic
contextualization of each examined topic. In recent years the series has increasingly published
studies on themes relating to the history of Christian culture and ideas viewed within a
methodically open perspective on the history of Christianity.
