Justin Martyr was a preeminent Christian apologist of the 2nd century, recognized as the foremost interpreter of the Logos theory. His surviving works, particularly his Apology, passionately defended the moral integrity of the Christian life and presented ethical and philosophical arguments to end persecution. He put forth the theologically innovative notion that the "seeds of Christianity" predated Christ's incarnation, thereby connecting early Christianity with classical philosophy by asserting that ancient thinkers were unwitting Christians.

Justin’s artfully condensed version of the lost Philippic History of Trogus, a contemporary of Livy, is a universal history of the world apart from Rome, from mythic beginnings through Alexander the Great, the Hellenistic kingdoms, and Parthia, and was among the most widely read and influential books in the Middle Ages and Renaissance.

Die Apologien Justins, der in der Mitte des 2. Jahrhunderts in Rom lebte und lehrte und dort das Martyrium erlitt, gelten als Hauptwerk der fruhchristlichen Apologetik. In ihnen spiegelt sich die Auseinandersetzung des fruhen Christentums mit seiner paganen Umwelt. Justin verteidigt das Christentum gegen Vorwurfe und Verdachtigungen und versucht es zugleich als die wahre vernunftgemasse Philosophie zu profilieren. Der vorliegende Band bietet eine neue deutsche Ubersetzung mit kommentierenden Anmerkungen und einer fundierten Einleitung in dieses bedeutende Werk der fruhen christlichen Apologetik.
