It includes the creeds' use and alteration in subsequent periods until the time of Charlemagne and the beginnings of the \u003cem\u003efilioque\u003c\/em\u003e controversy. In addition, the author provides a scholarly commentary on the most common ancient confessions: the Nicene Creed and the Apostles' Creed. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoing beyond previous studies, the book contains chapters dedicated to the use of creeds in law, art, music, everyday life and even magic. Recently discovered source texts, such as a new Ethiopic version of the Roman Creed and a short recension of the Creed of Nicaea-Constantinople, receive extensive treatment. Credal developments in the eastern churches beyond the borders of the Roman Empire complete this comprehensive overview. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume is intended both as a textbook for advanced students of theology and cognate disciplines and as a reference book on the creeds in a wide range of contexts.
