The Last Pagan Emperor

Julian the Apostate and the War Against Christianity

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Roman emperor Julian (361-363) was raised as a Christian, but soon after apostatized, and, during his short reign, attempted to revive paganism. This provoked the anger of the Christians, who raised accusations against him as a persecutor. In The Last Pagan Emperor, these claims are carefully investigated.
