"The End of Ancient Christianity offers within 250 elegantly written pages, with documentation to satisfy the specialist and a lucidity to entrance the general reader, a survey of the transformation of Christianity and the Christian world in the Latin west between Augustine and Gregory the Great. The center of attention is not high politics but the common life of the Church and people. The astonishing rise of monasticism rightly attracts his attention as the forcing ground on which the issues of these decades were confronted. The powerful figures of Augustine and Gregory loom large over these pages, but Markus's vision is not distracted or distorted by them; there is no better book to bring this period to life."

Synopsis
This study is concerned with one, central historical problem: the nature of the changes that transformed the intellectual and spiritual horizons of the Christian world from its establishment in the fourth century to the end of the sixth. Why, for example, were the assumptions, attitudes and traditions of Gregory the Great so markedly different from those of Augustine? The End of Ancient Christianity examines how Christians, who had formerly constituted a threatened and beleaguered minority, came to define their identity in a changed context of religious respectability in which their faith had become a source of privilege, prestige and power. Professor Markus reassesses the cult of the martyrs and the creation of schemes of sacred time and sacred space, and analyzes the appeal of asceticism and its impact on the Church at large. These changes form part of a fundamental transition, perhaps best described as the shift from "Ancient" toward "Medieval" forms of Christianity; from an older and more diverse secular culture towards a religious culture with a firm Biblical basis., This book is concerned with the nature of the changes that transformed the intellectual and spiritual horizons of the Christian world from its establishment in the fourth century to the end of the sixth., This book is concerned with one central historical problem: the nature of the changes that transformed the intellectual and spiritual horizons of the Christian world from its establishment in the fourth century to the end of the sixth.
