In Converts and Kingdoms, Professor Moczar tells the story of early Christianity's faith, courage, and cunning-chronicling the labors of missionaries and martyrs (with no small help from Providence) to spread the gospel and lay the foundation for the most magnificent culture human history has ever known. This stirring narrative reveals a young Church ardently occupied with the great work of conversion: with saints and generals, priests and kings alike filled with zeal to make disciples of all nations. You will encounter heroic tales of the nascent Faith, including: The emperor who put his trust in the one God rather than the sorcery of his predecessors- and changed the course of the world to come. The would-be hermit who became an accidental missionary- and helped birth the quintessential Catholic kingdom. Pious monarchs who repelled barbarian invaders. The former slave boy who returned to the land of his pagan captors- and turned it into an island of saints and scholars. The Marian miracle that scattered the demons of human sacrifice- and opened the door to a new Christian continent. You will discover not only the story of the Church's early missionary efforts but valuable lessons for re-evangelizing a modern West that has slipped into a new and insidious form of paganism.

The publication of such a list speaks eloquently for the vitality of the Church. It may be regarded as a challenge by some, but nothing is further from the wish of the author. To all fair-minded men, the movement towards the Church is cannot fail to be of great interest. With the bigot, the author has no concern except to remind him that in yielding allegiance to the Old Faith the convert becomes no less loyal to Ills native country. His Gracious Majesty King George V has not in the thousands enumerated in these pages lost a single subject; rather has lie gained, for loyalty like all the virtues only grows stronger in the fuller life.

Between the sixteenth and the nineteenth centuries, the west central African kingdom of Kongo practiced Christianity and actively participated in the Atlantic world as an independent, cosmopolitan realm. Drawing on an expansive and largely unpublished set of objects, images, and documents, Cecile Fromont examines the advent of Kongo Christian visual culture and traces its development across four centuries marked by war, the Atlantic slave trade, and, finally, the rise of nineteenth-century European colonialism. By offering an extensive analysis of the religious, political, and artistic innovations through which the Kongo embraced Christianity, Fromont approaches the country's conversion as a dynamic process that unfolded across centuries. The African kingdom's elite independently and gradually intertwined old and new, local and foreign religious thought, political concepts, and visual forms to mold a novel and constantly evolving Kongo Christian worldview. Fromont sheds light on the cross-cultural exchanges between Africa, Europe, and Latin America that shaped the early modern world, and she outlines the religious, artistic, and social background of the countless men and women displaced by the slave trade from central Africa to all corners of the Atlantic world.

"An investigation of the process by which large parts of Europe accepted the Christian faith between the fourth and the fourteenth centuries and of some of the cultural consequences that flowed therefrom." In a work of splendid scholarship that reflects both a firm mastery of difficult sources and a keen intuition, one of Britain's foremost medievalists tells the story of the Christianization of Europe. It is a very large story, for conversion encompassed much more than religious belief. With it came enormous cultural change: Latin literacy and books, Roman notions of law and property, and the concept of town life, as well as new tastes in food, drink, and dress. Whether from faith or by force, from self-interest or by revelation, conversion had an immense impact that is with us even today.

The story of the conversion of the English to Christianity traditionally begins with Augustine's arrival in 597. This text offers a critical re-evaluation of the process of conversion which assesses what the act really meant to new converts, who was responsible for it, and why particular figures both accepted conversion for themselves and threw their influence behind the spread of Christianity. The conversion has often been seen as something which missionaries did to the English. The book restores responsibility to the English and, in particular, King Aethelbert, Edwin, Oswald and Oswin, and it is their religious policies that form the focus of this text.

The book covers such topics as the relationship between the Church and the Roman state, Christian attitudes toward the barbarians, and the missions to northern Europe.
