Description
Foxe's Book of Martyrs is a historical account of Christian martyrs throughout the ages, written by John Foxe. First published in 1563, it details the persecution and suffering endured by Christians from the time of the early church up until the reign of Queen Mary I of England. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different period of history and the individuals who suffered for their faith. The stories of these martyrs are told in vivid detail, with Foxe drawing on a variety of sources to provide a comprehensive and accurate account of their lives and deaths. The book also includes illustrations and engravings depicting scenes from the lives of the martyrs. Foxe's Book of Martyrs is a powerful testament to the courage and faith of those who were willing to die for their beliefs, and a reminder of the importance of religious freedom and tolerance.Under the Roman emperors, commonly called the Era of the Martyrs, was occasioned partly by the increasing number and luxury of the Christians, and the hatred of Galerius, the adopted son of Diocletian, who, being stimulated by his mother, a bigoted pagan, never ceased persuading the emperor to enter upon the persecution, until he had accomplished his purpose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
