Abstract
The process of evangelization in the diocese of Brescia is investigated from the beginning (fourth century) until the end of the Middle Ages. The condition of the Christians of the first centuries gets light by the sermons of the bishop Gaudenzio, by the epigraphic sources and the hagiographic tradition. The studies of the archives’s documents and of the archaeological discoveries can also to follow the evolution of ecclesiastical institutions throughout the Middle Ages and to show their local roots, particularly with regard to the pastoral dynamics.
