Description
Silanus The Christian is a historical fiction novel written by Edwin A. Abbott. The story is set in ancient Rome during the reign of Emperor Nero. The main character, Silanus, is a young Roman nobleman who becomes a Christian after meeting the apostles Peter and Paul.Silanus faces many challenges as he tries to reconcile his newfound faith with his Roman heritage and the expectations of his family and society. He must navigate the dangerous political climate of Nero's reign and the persecution of Christians. Along the way, he falls in love with a Christian woman named Lydia and must choose between his love for her and his duty to his family.The novel explores themes of faith, love, sacrifice, and the clash of cultures between the Roman Empire and the early Christian church. Abbott's vivid descriptions of ancient Rome and its customs bring the story to life, and his portrayal of Silanus as a conflicted and complex character adds depth to the narrative.Overall, Silanus The Christian is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the early days of Christianity and the challenges faced by those who chose to follow it in a hostile world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
