Sinopsis

On the Deaths of the Persecutorsáis a work of considerable historical import containing details about the Roman Empire of the early 4th century AD that are found nowhere else. In this unique work, Lactantius creates a hybrid of history and apologetics, making an argument for the truth of the Christian religion based on the fates of those emperors who had been most egregious persecutors of Christians. As a work of history,áOn the Deaths of the Persecutorsáis a key source for DiocletianâÇÖs Tetrarchy, the Great Persecution, and the rise of Constantine, worthy to supplement the monumentaláEcclesiastical HistoryáandáThe Life of the Blessed Emperor Constantine, both by Eusebius Pamphilus, as the most important primary sources for this era of transition, turmoil and consolidation.This new edition of the classic translation of Lord Hailes was originally executed in the late 18th century and re-used ináThe Ante-Nicene Fathersáseries in 1905. For this edition, the translation has been supplemented with a new introduction and extensive commentary to make the text more approachable for a modern audience. An index is also included along with an updated list of references and suggested further reading.
