Building on the success of Edinburgh University Press’s highly acclaimed Atlas of Global Christianity, this volume is the ninth in a series of reference works that takes the analysis of worldwide Christianity to a deeper level of detail. It focuses on Christianity in Eastern and Southern Europe, covering every country and offering both reliable empirically researched demographic information and original interpretative essays by indigenous scholars and practitioners. It maps the religion’s patterns of growth and decline, assesses major traditions and movements, analyses key themes, and examines current trends. As a comprehensive account of the presence of Christianity in every country in Eastern and Southern Europe, this volume will become a standard work of reference in its field.
This volume offers a rich array of information and insights on Christianity in Southern and Eastern Europe – a region marked by both a deepening of faith and emerging secular trends. The editors have assembled a skilled team of contributors who deliver timely updates, fresh interpretations and even projections on the future of Christianity in this rapidly evolving part of the world. -- Lucian Turcescu, Concordia University
Two of the editors have been involved with the whole series. The third editor is a native of the region under study. This combination guarantees a quality product that will be of interest, and much use, to graduate students, faculty and religious figures alike. This volume will make a significant contribution and position itself as a reference book that can easily educate readers on the major themes and points related to the entry focus. -- Lavinia Stan, St. Francis Xavier University
