Against this background they state that in the volume under review they have endeavoured to capture the complexity of early Christianity and its socio-cultural setting, whilst also indicating some of the elements that make it possible to trace coherence, a recognisable identity maintained over time and defended resolutely despite cultural pressure that could have produced something other ( p. xiii). After a brief introductory essay by Mitchell setting out some of the competing issues involved in such a discussion (Christians were quick to talk of a kind of universal identity but inevitably found themselves operating within specic regions), Frank Trombley looks at the whole question of the extent of the spread of Christianity in the period under discussion. In the last of these we are given a salutary reminder of the fact that Christian disputes about Christology and the doctrine of God arose in part out of a desire on the part of some Christians to forge a clear intellectual identity for the evolving faith.
