the insignia of the new christianized empire, whose capital is no longer rome but constantinople, are placed with perhaps unconscious symbolism atop the corinthian columns taken from a pagan building. once reviled and persecuted, christianity is triumphant. historians have argued about the causes of the fall of the roman empire ever since it happened, when saint augustine wrote that the empire had been part of god's divine plan for the furtherance of christianity through the world, that it had now fulfilled its historical purpose. modern scholars have found political, material, economic, social reasons for the decline, but have been most impressed by the spiritual crisis which swept through all roman classes in the fourth century and is marked by the breakdown of the social, ethical, and religious concepts which had bound the classical world view together. the roman empire had brought to its rulers inconceivable wealth, as we can still see today in its vast building projects. but the rights of individual people to moral fulfillment had never been met. so the rise of christianity, the
