Autorenporträt

Abram Herbert Lewis (1836–1912) was an American author, theologian, and a prominent figure associated with the Seventh-day Baptist Church. His scholarly endeavours produced notable works analyzing the interplay of pagan practices and Christianity. Among his literary contributions, 'Paganism Surviving in Christianity' stands out as a critical examination of how Christian ritual and dogma have been influenced by ancient pagan traditions. Published in 1892, this book presents a historical perspective on the absorption of pagan elements into Christian worship and ceremonies through the centuries. Lewis's literary style is characterized by meticulous research and an analytical approach that reflects his religious and academic backgrounds. His work remains a significant source for students of comparative religion and early Christian history. While his writing may appeal to a more scholarly audience, it provides valuable insights into the syncretic processes that have shaped religious practices. Lewis, through his works, has contributed to the understanding of the complex relationship between Christianity and the cultural customs it absorbed from various societies over time.
