The Medieval Manichee: A Study of the Christian Dualist Heresy Book

A reissue of Sir Steven Runciman's classic account of the Dualist heretic tradition in Christianity from its Gnostic origins, through Armenia, Byzantium, and the Balkans to its final flowering in Italy and Southern France.

Within a century of his death Manichaean churches were established from western Mediterranean lands to eastern Turkestan.
