Description

Explore a new perspective on Christian history with Living Martyrs in Late Antiquity and Beyond. This scholarly work from Routledge Studies in the Early Christian World challenges traditional views of martyrdom. Instead of focusing only on death, this book examines how living martyrdom served as a major spiritual goal in the late antique Latin west. Readers will learn why these figures have been overlooked in previous studies. The text traces the history of living martyrs as objects of spiritual devotion and emulation. By shifting the focus away from death, the book provides a fresh way to study and locate the concept of martyrdom in early Christian history. This book focuses on three significant authors from the late ancient Latin west who believed that martyrdom did not require death. It is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the spiritual aspirations and religious practices of the late antique period.
