About the Book

Revealing the rich diversity of the early Christian movement, After the New Testament: 100-300 CE: A Reader in Early Christianity, Second Edition, brings together an extensive selection of texts from the second and third centuries, both "orthodox" and "heterodox." Selections include the writings of the Apostolic Fathers, the writings of Nag Hammadi, early pseudepigrapha, martyrologies, anti-Jewish tractates, heresiologies, canon lists, church orders, liturgical texts, and theological treatises. Featuring large textual excerpts--entire documents wherever possible--concise introductions, and lucid, up-to-date translations, After the New Testament is ideal for courses in Early Christianity, Christian Origins, and Early Church History.

Review :
"This is simply the best available sourcebook of its kind."--Susan Harvey, Brown University "Anyone who teaches a class on early Christianity needs access to a collection of primary sources that have a brief introduction to each author, a clear and recent English translation, and excerpts short enough to be useful in an undergraduate survey class. This book fills that need, and I have been extremely grateful for its existence."--Christine Sheparson, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville "I find After the New Testament to be very helpful and accessible. It is currently the best textbook available, since it offers a broad and rich selection of primary sources from early Christianity."--Charlotte Radler, Loyola Marymount University
