LAPIDGE, M., The Roman Martyrs. Introduction, Translations, and Commentary. Oxford University Press, 2017. 750p. Hardback. Series: Oxford Early Christian Studies. Lapidge has made an inestimable contribution to Early Church studies. The work captures the ecclesiastical ethos at the time of the passions, both in Christian values and the counter-values of paganism... the collection of information about each martyr, source and hagiography is unparalleled. Most important, the author provides martyrdom accounts in English of the hagiography still dominating the landscape of ecclesiastical Rome.
