'The Christian and the Supernatural in Late Antiquity' (Trident Publishing) is an edited collection which brings together twelve chapters spanning 2CE-8CE which explore how Late Antique Christians navigated the supernatural in a world undergoing profound religious and cultural transformation. From inherited Greco-Roman traditions to emerging Christian interpretations of reality, the contributions examine the complex relationship between faith, belief and the supernatural.
