Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Saint Cyprian The present volume brings before us a chapter of Church History which finds fitting place after the volume on Tertullian. That writer, designated by Dean Milman, "the father of Latin Christianity," belongs to the beginning of the second century. St Cyprian is martyred in the middle of the third. The Church has grown immensely in numbers and influence. Several persecutions have taken place; that in which Cyprian was taken from the earth, namely, the persecution of Decius, was the fiercest there had yet been. There was a yet fiercer to come, that of Dioclesian, but it was the last. His successor made Christianity the national religion of the Empire. And the days of Cyprian mark this further development, that Christian literature had greatly multiplied, and we are able to see more clearly the nature of Christian doctrine and practice. There is no need to expatiate on this subject here, as the volume before us supplies the information. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
