Martyrdom and Memory: Early Christian Culture Making - Gender, Theory, and Religion
Elizabeth Castelli
Suggests that Martyrs are produced, not by lived experience of particular historical individuals but by the stories that are later told about them. This work explores the central role of persecution in the early development of Christian ideas, institutions, and cultural forms and shows how the legacy of Christian martyrdom plays out in the world.
