Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the conversion of various Slavic populations to Christianity. Before the 10th century, this ethnic group remained largely unrepresented in historical texts due to their relative remoteness from the main centers of European culture. However, once Slavic tribes began to migrate into more prominent regions, they quickly fell under the sway of various surrounding empires and civilizations, each with its own religious influence. One of the most dramatic examples of this is the conversion of Bulgaria, which had resisted Christian influence for centuries before finally adopting the religion from the Byzantine Empire in the 9th century. The book also examines similar conversions of other Slavic peoples from paganism to Christianity, a process that was often fraught with violence and political power-mongering that often obscured the spiritual essence of the new faith. Ultimately, the conversion of the Slavs represents a watershed moment in the history of Christianity, expanding the reach of the religion eastward and laying the foundation for the development of distinct Slavic cultural and religious traditions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330777190_0
