The papers presented here explore in various ways the interactions
between clerics and the society in which Christian churches put
down roots in Late Antiquity. Some of these complex processes,
involved in the christianization of the Late Roman world, form the
theme of the first three sections. Amongst other aspects, the
essays in these sections examine the Three Chapters controversy and
the participation of lay and clerical protagonists in it, the
social standing of Italian bishops (including their use of lay
personnel and their economic impact), and a comparison of pagan and
Christian places of worship. The essays included in the last
section deal with communication in Late Antiquity. They present the
first results of a long-term project on the changing role of
information during the last centuries of the Roman world. Eight
papers in the volume are published in English for the first time.
