Eight papers by scholars of theology, history, and classics ponder one of the most traumatic experiences of the early church, the Great Persecution begun by the emperor Diocletian and his tetrarchic colleagues in AD 303, just when Christians had relaxed into a long respite from official persecution. The topics include philosophical objections to Christianity on the eve of the Great Prosecution, preparation for martyrdom in the early church, Eusebius of Caesarea's conception of the persecutions as a key to reading his Historia ecclesiatica, and the origin of the cult of Saint George.
