Religion and Authority in Roman Carthage from Augustus to Constantine

Religion and Authority in Roman Carthage from Augustus to Constantine This book examines the organization of religion - Christian, pagan, and Jewish - in the Roman Empire at the time of Constantine and Augustine. The author argues that because official pagan religion was inextricably tied to the structure of individual cities, Christianity alone was able to unite the inhabitants of the Empire as a whole.
