About this book
Perhaps more than any other cause, the passage of texts from scroll to codex in late antiquity converted the Roman Empire from paganism to Christianity and enabled the worldwide spread of Christian faith. Guy Stroumsa describes how canonical scripture was established and how its interpretation replaced blood sacrifice in religious ritual.
Reviews
Stroumsa covers scriptural history with remarkable sophistication and provides here a comprehensive review of ancient Christian book culture.
