The twelve articles in this book (five of them by editor Jacob
Neusner) explore the background developments and motivating forces
for what Neusner calls the "re-invention" of history in the fourth
and fifth centuries CE. The Christianization of the Roman empire
under Constantine is seen as the impetus for reexamination within
both Christianity and Judaism of their historical foundations.
History then became a "mode of religious-theological discourse" for
the respective communities of faith. The other contributors to the
volume are: Burton Mack, Glenn Chestnut, Arnaldo Momigliano, Nahum
Glatzer, and William Scott Green.
