Summary

This book is a sequel to Christian Initiation: Baptism in the Medieval West and the second in the Hillenbrand Books series of J.D.C. Fisher's historical treatments of the sacraments of initiation. This reissue of Fisher's classic study of the sacramental rite of confirmation examines what the early rite of confirmation consisted of and what grace it was believed to confer in the period when there is undisputed evidence of the rite's existence. Like the earlier work, Christian Initiation: Baptism in the Medieval West (Chicago/Mundelein: Hillenbrand Books, 2004), Christian Initiation: Confirmation Then and Now moves from early non-biblical evidence through a survey of African, European, and Near Eastern regions in the third and fourth centuries before exploring the emergence of the ritual called confirmation in fourth-and fifth-century Gaul.
