add Your note 
Lot description Show orginal version

The subject of the relatively short work is the beginnings of the developing Christianity in the capital of the Roman empire under Emperor Nero. The novel has an epistolary character, being a collection of fictional letters written by the characters of the work. The core of the structure is a two-pronged correspondence: the young Roman patrician Julius Flavius exchanges letters with his friend Gaius Macarius, who is on military duty in Gaul, and his friend Sabina Marcia keeps in touch by letter with her former tutor, the liberator Zenon of Athens, who is in Greece. Other authors of the letters are side characters Lucius Helvidius, Sophonius Tigellinus, Celsus Anarus and Chrysippus. The content of these letters familiarizes not only with the experiences of the main characters, but also with the daily life of the imperial capital.

Published by the State Publishing House of School Books, Lviv 1933.

Format: 200 x 140 mm, 240 pages.

Hardcover bookbinding, very good condition.

Inside illustrations and map of Rome.
