Böcker av Philip Kennedy

Offers new vistas for reading, understanding and interpreting Arabic literature as well as the culture in which it was produced.

Christianity began with the words and deeds of an obscure village carpenter's son who died a shameful criminal's death at the hands of the Roman occupiers of his country. This book shows that the history of the religion, while often glorious, is not one of unimpeded progress, but something still more remarkable, flawed and human.
