Présentation de l'éditeur

This Volume, like the preceding, has been specially prepared for theE nglish Edition. Divided into three sections, it yet forms one whole, for its one theme is the great conflict of Primitive Christianity with Paganism. The first section gives the narrative of the missions and persecutions of the Church ;the second treats of its most illustrious representatives, and brings out their distinctive characteristics; it is entitled The Fathers of the Church of theS econd and Third Centuries. The third section describes the great controversial conflict of Christianity, and contains a complete outline of the Apology of theE arly Church. The Volume which is to follow will have for its subject Heresy and the Faith ;and the work will conclude with the exposition of the religious and ecclesiastical life of that age of fervour and of freedom. The Author has spared no labour over this book, and has uniformly derived his statements from the original sources. He esteems it an honour to see his work presented to the religious public in anE nglish translation executed with so much care and ability. Edmond de Pressense. Paris,
