Most surveys of religious tolerance and intolerance start from the
medieval and early modern period, either passing over or making
brief mention of discussions of religious moderation and coercion
in Greco-Roman antiquity. Here Maijastina Kahlos widens the
historical perspective to encompass late antiquity, examining
ancient discussions of religious moderation and coercion in their
historical contexts. The relations and interactions between various
religious groups, especially pagans and Christians, are
scrutinized, and the stark contrast often drawn between a tolerant
polytheism and an intolerant Christianity is replaced by a more
refined portrait of the complex late antique world.
