Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Christianity and the Roman Empire
It is not possible to discuss so intricate a subject without assuming some knowledge on the part of the reader. But it is believed that a very elemen tary acquaintance with the familiar facts of general history will make this little work intelligible. For the sake of those who may desire some introduction to the early Christian writers, but may only have access to translations such as are contained in the ante-nicene Christian Library, the chief works are cited by their English titles. In the Appendices an attempt has been made to supply such information concerning the principal persons whose names appear in these pages, as will enable the reader to refer them without difficulty to their proper date, locality, and school of thought.
