Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a philosophical dialogue between a newly converted Christian, Octavius, and his pagan friend Caecilius, who vehemently defends his traditional Roman religious beliefs and customs. Taking place during the reign of Marcus Aurelius, the book critiques the prevailing polytheism and the worship of idols, arguing for the supremacy of one God. The conversation, infused with historical and mythological references, explores the contradictions and absurdities of pagan beliefs, highlighting the superiority of a monotheistic and ethical religion. The author's erudite examination of ancient religious practices offers insights into the intellectual and spiritual climate of the Roman Empire during the rise of Christianity.
