In sermons, letters, and ascetic traditions, late ancient Christians imagined the last minutes of life and the events that followed death in elaborate detail. This text traces how, in late ancient Christianity, death came to be thought of as a moment of reckoning: a physical ordeal whose pain is followed by an immediate judgment of one's actions by angels and demons and, after that, fitting punishment. 000859048 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on February 15, 2019). 000859048 650_0 $$aDeath$$xReligious aspects$$xChristianity. 000859048 650_0 $$aChurch history$$yPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600. 000859048 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9780190459161 000859048 830_0 $$aOxford scholarship online. 000859048 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000859048 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190459161.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000859048 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:859048$$pGLOBAL_SET 000859048 980__ $$aBIB 000859048 983__ $$aOnline
