This volume in honour of Professor Boudewijn Dehandschutter collects twenty contributions on persecution and martyrdom in Late Antique Christianity. Chronologically, the articles by leading scholars in the field range from New Testament writings to the Byzantine period. The volume contains editions (Metrophanes of Smyrna), translations (Severus of Antioch), thematic studies (Socrates and the martyrs, credal statements in the martyr acts, Christian reception of the martyr Cyprian), analyses of texts (Martyrium Pionii 1.2, Eusebius' Martyrs of Palestine), and archaeological findings (the Antiochene church of Qausiyeh). Besides well-known authors and texts (Origen, Augustine, Gregory the Great) also less-known texts are brought to the fore (Coptic martyr texts, a Slavonic version of the Martyrium Polycarpi).
