The Apology

More about the book

Tertullian's Apology serves as a foundational defense of Christianity, advocating for its recognition alongside other religious sects in the Roman Empire. Notable for the powerful assertion that "the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church," this work highlights Tertullian's significant role in Latin Christianity. Included are the original Latin text and preserved footnotes, along with illustrations of philosophers and deities mentioned throughout the treatise, enriching the historical context of his arguments.
