The work of social theorist Anthony Giddens provides the basis for
a critical discussion of current methods employed in sociological
studies of the New Testament and for the presentation of a new
approach. The focus of these studies is the Corinthian
correspondence, including both the letters written by Paul and the
letter known as 1 Clement, sent from Rome to Corinth around the end
of the first century. This correspondence provides rich material
for a study of the social ethos of early Christian teaching and its
development. It allows an assessment of how Pauline Christianity
shapes relationships within the Christian community and how the
social ethos of the 'symbolic order' changes as it develops through
time in a changing context. Throughout David Horrell also explores
where and how the different teachings serve to legitimate or
sustain the dominant social order and the interests and positions
of the socially powerful.
