Zusammenfassung:
Coptic Christology in Practice forges a new path in the study of ancient and medieval Christology. Employing a range of interdisciplinary methods derived from the fields of social history, discourse theory, ritual studies, and the visual arts, Stephen J.

He thus enables readers to trace the fascinating lines of the Coptic church's theological and culturaltransition from late antiquity to Dar al-Islam.
