This is the first full study of early Christian ideology and the practice of slavery, now in paperback (originally published in HB by Oxford University Press in 2002). It examines early Christian slavery in its broad cultural setting; argues that modern scholars have failed to consider the impact of slavery on institutional structures, ideologies and practices of the early churches; and, focuses on the bodily experience of subjection and violation. It is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in slavery in early Christianity.
