Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Persecution in the Early Church: A Chapter in the History of Renunciation Of tho following pages the lecture actually delivered consisted of Chapter I., § 1, and of tho whole of Chapter V. These sections I have printed unaltered. This will explain a few slight repetitions, as also certain hortatory paragraphs not strictly in keeping with an historical work. The subject of persecution in the early Church, treated as a whole, has been somewhat neglected by English writers. Tho legal aspects of tho matter, the relations of the Church to the Empire, and the nature of the courts and procedure by which tho Christians were condemned have been fully dealt with in the researches of Ramsay, Hardy, and others, who approve on the whole of tho judgement of Mommsen. The opposite view, though still maintained by certain writers of repute (see infra, Appendix E), has not found any English historian, so far as I know, to defend it at length. Persecution also, treated merely from the standpoint of the Church, the experiences of the martyrs, has, of course, never lacked presentation in this country from the days of Foxe onward.
