Donatist Martyr Stories: The Church in Conflict in Roman North Africa
Maureen A. Tilley (transl.)
Translated with notes and introduction by Maureen A. Tilley
With this volume, Donatism regains its voice and its hagiography is available in English for the first time. The stories included provide a unique opportunity to glimpse the daily life of the church which for over a century was the faith of the majority of North African Christians. The narratives represent the lives and deaths of Christians who carried on pre-Constantine traditions from the fourth century to the advent of Islam.
