It is a probing study of the way in which Christianity was fashioned in England, giving full weight to the variety of wealth of the traditions that contributed to early Anglo-Saxon Christianity. It is also a study in the process of Christianization, as it was carried out by churchmen who, according to Mayr-Harting, prepared themselves by prayer and study and travel as well as by social awareness to Christianize their world.For this edition, the author has added a new preface in which he reconsiders some of his earlier conclusions and addresses recent developments in the scholarship. In a completely new chapter, Mayr-Harting appraises the work of Boniface of Devon, the greatest missionary of the early Middle Ages whom he calls the \"Mirror of English History.\" Mayr-Harting thereby extends his account of early Anglo-Saxon Christianity from the Gregorian mission of the late sixth century up to the eighth-century English mission to the Continent, perhaps the crowning achievement of early English history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51712121012512,"sku":"NEW0271007699","price":32.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71arsyRpDnL.jpg?v=1779398219","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-coming-of-christianity-to-anglo-saxon-england-0271007699","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
