About the Author:
Review:
David N. Bell is professor emeritus of religious studies at Memorial University and a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. He retired as head of the department of religious studies at the end of 2011. He has published some two dozen books, more than a hundred articles, and a great number of book reviews. His most recent book, published in 2017, is A Saint in the Sun: Praising Saint Bernard in the France of Louis XIV (Cistercian Publications).
Many Mansions provides an informative introduction to the development and diversity of Medieval Christian theology. Many Mansions presents an overview of how religious thinking developed in the thousand years between the end of the Roman Empire and the Reformation. Unlike other volumes, Many Mansions also looks at developments in both the Latin West (Roman Catholic) and the Greek East (Orthodox) belief systems. In addition to providing an introduction for readers with no background in theology or history, Many Mansions points out the reasons behind the growing divergence between the two great halves of Christendom. Many Mansions is ideal for the interested non-specialist general reader as well as the beginning student of Christian history, and has much to recommend it to the advanced scholars, theologians, and the academic community. -- Midwest Book Review

Book Description Paper Back. Condition: New. ometimes an instructor has to become a textbook writer: the right text is not available for the course, so the instructor has to write it. Teacher/author David Bell doesn't assume previous knowledge on the part of his readers, and he emphasizes the word 'introductory.' Many Mansions, as Bell describes it, examines 'selected themes of medieval Church doctrine as they were developed' in the Latin West and Byzantine East, from the eighth century to the fourteenth centuries, so that we are taken up through the development of scholastic theology in the West and the synthesis of Palamas in the East. As an introductory text, this book is excellent: if you haven't studied the history of doctrine before, or if you are teaching people who haven't, or if you simply want a fresh perspective on ground well-trodden-Many Mansions deserves your attention.
