Descripción del artículo del vendedor

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - When a wealthy pagan orator became bishop of Carthage in 248 AD, no one predicted he would die a martyr just ten years later-or that his writings would shape Christianity for seventeen centuries.Cyprian of Carthage stood at the center of early Christianity's most critical decade. Emperor Decius launched the first empire-wide persecution (250 AD), designed not to kill Christians but to make them apostatize. When thousands denied their faith under torture, the Church faced an existential crisis: could apostates return Then came the Great Plague (252-270 AD), killing millions while Christians organized relief efforts that confounded pagan critics. Finally, the Valerian persecution targeted bishops specifically, leading to Cyprian's execution on September 14, 258.This converted rhetorician wrote letters and treatises that defined Catholic theology on Church unity, sacramental validity, and episcopal authority. His declaration-'You cannot have God for your Father if you refuse to have the Church for your Mother'-became foundational doctrine. His conflict with Rome's bishop over baptism raised questions about papal primacy that Christians still debate. His commentary on the Lord's Prayer remains the earliest Latin exposition of that text.This book makes Cyprian accessible while maintaining scholarly rigor. You'll follow his conversion from paganism, his controversial flight during persecution, his navigation of the lapsed controversy, and his final witness as martyr. You'll understand why Augustine cited him constantly and how his ecclesiology influenced doctrine through Vatican II.This biography places Cyprian within the Crisis of the Third Century when Rome nearly collapsed. You'll see how Christianity survived and grew precisely when the empire seemed to be dying.What you'll gain:Understanding of the Decian and Valerian persecutionsAnalysis of Cyprian's major works on unity, lapse, prayer, and mortalityInsight into third-century sacramental theology and Church governanceAppreciation for a bishop who sealed his theology with his bloodThe field where Cyprian died is forgotten. But his words endure. This is his story - and through him, Christianity's most formative century.
