KORTE INHOUD

A Century of Miracles is a pleasant read. Drake knows how to combine scholarly discussion with an accessible and at times punchy style ... and lively comparisons are made with modern issues. The miracle stories are contextualised with late antique history in general, discussions ranging from the relations between emperors and bishops; questioning the dichotomies of pagans and Christians; the problem of the Constantinian turn; the debates on Julian's School Law, and so on.
