  Explores the construction of Christian identity in fourth and fifth centuries through inventing, fabricating and sharpening binary oppositions. Discussing the relations and interaction between pagan and Christian cultures, this book examines how the Christian argumentation against pagans was intertwined with self-perception and self-affirmation.
