More about the book

This is the first paperback edition of the enlighteningOxford University hardcover published in 2002. Glancy here situates early Christian slavery in its broadercultural setting, arguing that modern scholars haveconsistently underestimated the pervasive impact ofslavery on the institutional structures, ideologies, andpractices of the early churches - and upon the bodiesof the enslaved. Her careful attention to the bodilyexperience of subjection and violation that constitutedslavery makes this an indispensable book for anyoneinterested in slavery in early Christianity. Includes specialchapters on Jesus and Paul.
