This book deconstructs instances of religious conflict within the formative centuries of Christianity; the first six centuries CE. It explores the theoretical foundations of religious conflict; the dynamics of religious conflict within the context of persecution and martyrdom; the social and moral intersections that undergird the phenomenon of religious conflict; and the relationship between religious conflict and religious identity. It is unique in that it does not solely focus on religious violence; as it is physically manifested; but on religious conflict (and tolerance); looking too at dynamics of religious discourse and practice that often precede and accompany overt religious violence.
