Judith Perkins argues that Christians were so successful in suppressing their social identity as inhabitants of the Roman Empire, that historical documents and testimony have been sequestered as "Christian", rather than recognized as evidence for the social dynamics enacted during the period. Her show more discussion offers a stimulating survey of interest to students of ancient narrative, cultural studies, and gender.
