SCHROEDER; it was published by University of California Press in 2017 and is a 1st PRINTING with a publication line reading 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1.Melania the Elder and her granddaughter Melania the Younger were major figures in early Christian history, using their wealth, status, and forceful personalities to shape the development of nearly every aspect of the religion we now know as Christianity. This volume examines their influence on late antique Christianity and provides an insightful portrait of their legacies in the modern world. Departing from the traditionally patriarchal view, Melania gives a poignant and sometimes surprising account of how the rise of Christian institutions in the Roman Empire shaped our understanding of women’s roles in the larger world.A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
