| Meer info | ?Meeks masterfully recreates the currents of ethical thought which formed the milieu of the first Christian centuries, including the ethical options available to the common person. (?)Meeks refers to various schools of thought and intellectual movements but focuses on the ethical components. (?) In chapters 2 and 3 Meeks traces the ethical components of the philosophies of the Greco-Roman world (including (?) late Platonism, Stoicism, Cynicism, and Epicureanism) and the ethical traditions of Israel. He gives a very fine review of the early Christian communities in their settings and clearly shows how they fit into their Greco-Roman and Jewish milieus. While Meeks? style is accessible to interested lay people and non-specialists, his breast of knowledge makes this book also helpful for scholars in the field. Meeks? work is superb and deserving serious attention and wide-spread use by anyone attempting to understand early Christianity in its social and intellectual setting.? (LOREN THOMAS in The Classical World, 1990, pp.533-534). |
