Abstract

The essay proposes a critical reading of the volume “Penser la tolérance durant l’Antiquité Tardive”, published by Peter Van Nuffelen in 2018, which collects the results of four conferences given by the author at the École Pratique des Hautes Études in April of 2013. It is one of the last and most consistent products of current historiographic research on the subject of late antique religious tolerance. The volume is valued and discussed in its main topics and in its methodological assumptions, with a critical and constructive dialogic approach. In particular, Van Nuffelen’s main thesis that assimilates pagan and christian tolerance is questioned in the final disquisition, in which the reasons for dissent with respect to the model of the author are exposed, identifying the specificity of the Christian attitude in theology of history and consequently in political theology
