Christian martyrdom is a topic which conjures up images of inhumane persecutors confronted by Christian heroes who perish for the instant, but win the long-term battle for reputation. This volume brings together seven seminal papers by the radical historian Geoffrey de Ste Croix on early Christian topics.
