4.0 out of 5 stars
Typical outstanding Dawson Cultural History,
By
This review is from: The Formation of Christendom (Paperback)
All of Dawson's works are masterful syntheses of cultural history and this one is quite typical. The presentation is based on a series of lectures, so you sometimes get personal references to books or articles that he had published prior to making the book, which is a little unusual for a Dawson book, but as a consequence your interest is aroused to try to find the earlier publication. Dawson assumed that his audience already knew history, so this is not an introductory presentation of basic recorded facts, but rather, a synthesis of trends in the various manifestations of culture, including art, literature, politics, economics, religion and many other aspects of human behavior.

This book was recommended by one of my seminary professors as a better resource for the overall picture of the Christianity and its growth. I have found that it is an excellent resource book.
