The subject of this book is the discourse of persecution used by Christians in Late Antiquity (c. 300-700 CE). Through case studies covering the full chronological and geographical span of the period, it investigates how the conversion of the Roman Empire to Christianity changed the way that Christians perceived their hostile treatment.
