Peter Brown on the Future of Christianity, (Less Than Two Weeks from) Today

As we mentioned way back in September, readers in the New York area might be interested to attend this year’s Annual Father Alexander Schmemann lecture on January 18th at St Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary in Yonkers, where Peter Brown, noted scholar of late antiquity, will deliver a lecture on “Constantine, Eusebius, and the Future of Christianity” after being awarded Doctor of Divinity, honoris causa , by the Seminary’s Board of Trustees and faculty. According to the seminary’s website, “the lecture will focus on how Christians approach the study of history.”

A review of Brown’s seminal  Augustine of Hippo: A Biography can be found here , and of his most recent work,  Through the Eye of a Needle: Wealth, the Fall of Rome, and the Making of Christianity in the West, here .
