Almost the entire set of our values, for example, human equality and dignity, concern for the weak, condemnation of slavery, cruelty and oppression, is of Christian origin. Tom Holland will send us on a trip on history to show how the centuries -old development of the Christian idea left an indelible mark on today"s world and what aspects of Christian history are the basis of the very values that we encounter every day.
"Dominion" puts the story of how we have become as we are and why we think as we think - in the widest historical context. The reader will appreciate how new and supernatural the Christian teachings were when they first appeared and will be able to observe the development of a revolutionary idea from St. Michael to #Metoo.
The text of the book is supplemented by comments and notes of the scientific editor, which are especially valuable and help to understand the complex ups and downs of history.
Tom Holland is a wonderful storyteller. The words that he weaves together, fascinating and alive. You might think that the story will be boring or monotonous, but it shows how sometimes reality is sometimes more interesting and amazing than fiction
