More about the book

The book explores the concept of ancient martyr narratives as dynamic "living texts" that blur the lines between fact and fiction. Éric Rebillard posits that these accounts allowed audiences to embrace the historicity of martyrs while simultaneously recognizing the stories might not be entirely truthful. This examination highlights the complex relationship between narrative, belief, and historical perception in the context of early Christian martyrdom.
