The Power of Resurrection: Foucault, Discipline, and Early Christian Resistance

Fortress Academic (2019)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

In this book, Patrick G. Stefan argues that the subversive message of resurrection was instrumental in Christianity’s expansion. Using Foucault’s analysis of how material conditions shape and create individual subjects, Stefan shows how the idea of resurrection undermined Caesar’s control over those living in his domain.
