History as MysteryCity Lights Books, 1999 - 273 strani "History as Mystery pursues themes ranging from antiquity to modern times, from the Inquisition and Joan of Arc to the anti-labor bias of present-day history textbooks. Parenti challenges the image of early Christianity as a movement for the poor and a beacon of light in the Dark Ages. He unmasks the Church's support of slavery and serfdom, its suppression of learning and culture, and its oppression of heretics, women, and Jews."--BOOK JACKET. |
