Description

A shrewd and incisive study of the career of St Ambrose (339-397), bishop of Milan and one of the four Doctors of the Christian Church (with Sts. Jerome, Augustine and Gregory the Great). A key figure in the transition of the later Roman Empire into its medieval successor, Western Christendom, Ambrose was deeply involved in the political, social and religious issues of his day - in struggles between church and state, and in the fight against heresy - but he also deeply influenced Church thinking on such issues as the role and status of women. John Moorhead considers all these dimensions in a book that will be of compelling interest to historians of the Church and the late classical world.
