| Description: |
Raises the issue of the Church's relationship with the countries in which it exists, and how far it can remain "above politics". The book also discusses the process by which Christianity has helped to mould the culture and identity of several nations. |
| Synopsis: |
Beginning with Constantine, the originator of political Christianity, the book proceeds by way of Anselm's concept of the City of God, and John of Salisbury's developing awareness of national identity, to the clearer context of the nation state; the English and Polish experiences are contrasted. |
