The essential objective of this study is to unpack the complicity
between historians and secularization theory in the study of late
ancient and early medieval Christianity—and then suggest a way
out. In this work of historiography of religion, Enrico Beltramini
argues that religious history is inherently secular and produces
distorted representations of the Christian past. He suggests moving
from an epistemological to a hermeneutical approach so that the
supernatural worldview of the Christian past can be addressed on
its own terms. This work also engages Markus’s saeculum and
replaces Markus’s secularized relationship between the Kingdom
and the government of the civitas with the Augustinian association
of the Kingdom and divine government.
