Description

Explore the complex relationship between visionary experiences and religious practices in early Christian Carthage. This scholarly work examines how the near-death experiences of martyrs influenced the development of ancestor cults and the transformation of cemeteries into representations of paradise. Using the early Christian cemeteries in Carthage as a primary case study, the book provides a detailed look at the historical and cultural foundations of the early Christian cult of the saints. It examines the differences between the views held by church fathers and the actual practices found in graveside rituals and cemetery material culture. This study offers a deeper understanding of how post-mortem realms were perceived and constructed. It is an essential resource for those studying ancient history, Roman civilization, and the evolution of early Christian traditions and archaeology.
