It highlights forms of cultural articulation, their relationship with the religious power and imperial political and regions in which they developed. It focuses on popular forms of early Christianity, understood as representative of the intermediate strata, that is, literate, but no scholarly strata, but able to express practices and representations of a larger group of people of the lower strata of society.
