My aim is to produce something as comprehensive but more colourful and hopefully a little more accessible. <BR/><BR/>There's been a rash of monographs and papers examining aspects of NT social history over the past 15 years that have yet to filter into the wider world.<BR/><BR/>I think there's also a fresh interest in this stuff as people ask questions about how the the church engages with its culture and wonder how the early did it.<BR/><BR/>I'm certainly looking forward to getting stuck in. There will be progress reports along the way.simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13470335172330595542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9901815.post-7701730573521674542009-03-19T22:52:00.000+00:002009-03-19T22:52:00.000+00:00Well if you can do for a popular audience what Sta...Well if you can do for a popular audience what Stambaugh and Balch did for an academic audience with 'The Social World of the First Christians' (SPCK, 1986), that will be a fine achievement.
