â??An End to Enmityâ? casts light upon the shadowy figure of the â??wrongdoerâ? of Second Corinthians by exploring the social and rhetorical conventions that governed friendship, enmity and reconciliation in the Greco-Roman world. The book puts forward a novel hypothesis regarding the identity of the â??wrongdoerâ? and the nature of his offence against Paul. Drawing upon the prosopographic data of Paulâ??s Corinthian epistles and the epigraphic and archaeological record of Roman Corinth, the author shapes a robust image of the kind of individual who did Paul â??wrongâ? and caused â??painâ? to both Paul and the Corinthians. The concluding chapter reconstructs the history of Paulâ??s relationship with an influential convert to Christianity at Corinth.
