Marcion of Sinope, as the vast output of books and papers about this
second-century teacher has proven since the times when he was alive and
still until today, is one of the most known and debated Christian
entrepreneurs of the new religious Jesus-movement, perhaps the one who
was responsible for the self-denomination ‘Christianity’. In this volume
papers have been collected that originated or were inspired by a
workshop in 2014 at the Max-Weber-Kolleg, University of Erfurt, directed
by Jan Bremmer, Jörg Rüpke and Markus Vinzent. ‘Marcion of Sinope as
Religious Entrepreneur’ is not just a volume on Marcion’s texts, but
also on his role and his reception in the second century, particularly
in the making of Christianity.
