Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Agape and the Eucharist in the Early Church: Studies in the History of the Christian Love-Feasts
The present investigation does not claim to have added largely to what was already known on the subject. The Agape has long been regarded as, if not, like Mary Queen of Scots, the eternal enigma of history, at least one of the obscurest of problems, and I do not profess to have solved it. Indeed it is very doubtful if we have the materials for its complete solution even now after these fresh discoveries.
