Guilt by Association: Heresy Catalogues in Early Christianity
Smith, Geoffrey S. (Nease Fellow and Lecturer, Nease Fellow and Lecturer, University of Texas at Austin, Austin)
Guilt by Association explores the creation, publication, and circulation of heresy catalogues by second- and early third-century Christians. By tracking the origins and use of the earliest Christian heresy catalogues, The book sheds new light on the socio-rhetorical aims of the Pastoral Epistles, the circulation of early Christian literature, the emergence of a distinct Christian identity, and the origins of Gnosticism.
