The Bauer Thesis Examined: The Geography of Heresy in the Early Christian Church (Studies in the Bible & Early Christianity)

By Thomas Arthur Robinson

This study challenges the adequacy of the reconstruction of primitive Christianity advanced by Walter Bauer in Orthodoxy and Heresy in Earliest Christianity - the theory that so-called heretical movements were early, widespread, and strong. The author does this by citing the lack of data extensive enough to warrant such conclusions.
