Christianity, one of the world's great religions, has had an incalculable impact on human history. This book, now the most comprehensive and up to date single volume work in English, describes not only the main ideas and personalities of Christian history, its organisation and spirituality, but how it has changed politics, sex, and human society. Diarmaid MacCulloch ranges from Palestine in the first century to India in the third, from Damascus to China in the seventh century and from San Francisco to Korea in the twentieth. He is one of the most widely travelled of Christian historians and conveys a sense of place as arrestingly as he does the power of ideas. He presents the development of Christian history differently from any of his predecessors. He shows how, after a semblance of unity in its earliest centuries, the Christian church divided during the next 1400 years into three increasingly distanced parts, of which the western Church was by no means always the most important: he observes that at the end of the first eight centuries of Christian history, Baghdad might have seemed a more likely capital for worldwide Christianity than Rome. This is the first truly global history of Christianity.

感受到了对于“宗教”这个话题的浩瀚复杂。确实不是只言片语的断言可以概括的。世界的历史被这样的东西所左右,既有合理之处,也十分令人哭笑不得。
评分牛津同志老教授写基督宗教的历史,并为bbc主持六集记录片,由中东到近东到远东到中国,又回到古罗马、中世纪、宗教革命、新大陆。对讲基督宗教的历史同时又批判之,妙。
评分其实可以当一本基督教框架下的欧洲史来读。
评分JUSTING里听的中文版
