This book traces the rise of Christianity in Italy from its humble origins in the catacombs of Rome to its position as the dominant religion of the Roman Empire. It examines the struggles of early Christians, their attempts to preserve their faith through persecution and their eventual triumph in the 4th century. The book then discusses the development of Christian art and architecture in Italy, from the simple frescoes of the catacombs to the grand mosaics of the great basilicas in Rome and Ravenna. Along the way, the author explores the changing relationship between the Church and the state and the ways in which Christianity shaped the political and social landscape of Italy.
