The Oxford Illustrated History of Christianity by John Mcmanners

The Oxford Illustrated History of Christianity by John Mcmanners

This book tells the story of Christianity from the Early Church to ecumenism. Written by a team of scholars, it spans 2000 years to give a history of Christianity for the general reader. The opening section traces events to 1800 and includes chapters on Eastern Christendom, Christianity and Islam, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, and missions overseas. The second, examining the impact of Christianity around the world, brings the story up to date, while the final part, considering questions of theology, conscience, and belief, provides a glimpse into the future of the faith.

John McManners is a Fellow of All Souls College, and Regius Professor Emeritus of Ecclesiastical History at the University of Oxford. He has written extensively on French and European history. His fifth book, Death and the Enlightenment (OUP, 1981), was awarded the Wolfson Literary Prize for
History, and was one of The Times ten best non-fiction books of the year.
