"A Relation Of The Death Of The Primitive Persecutors" L.C.F Lactantius, 1687 - (1st Edition - First English Translation)
Step into the world of early Christian history with this rare first edition and first English translation. Originally written in the early 4th century by the influential Christian thinker Lactantius, this work chronicles the dramatic downfall of Roman emperors who persecuted Christians, blending apologetic insight with vivid historical narrative. After being rediscovered in the 18th century, it was translated into English for the first time, reflecting the renewed fascination with early Christian texts and the religious debates of late 17th-century Protestant England. This volume not only illuminates the faith and resilience of Christian martyrs but also serves as a bridge between ancient struggles and early modern thought.
