Perpetua Before the Crowd: Martyrdom and Memory in Roman North Africa Gabrielle Friesen Department of History Undergraduate Honors Thesis April 2014 Advisor: Anne E. Lester, Department of History Committee: John Willis, Department of History Noel Lenski, Department of Classics Andy Cain, Department of Classics ABSTRACT Vibia Perpetua’s prison diary is one of the first known Christian works by a woman. Her writing survived due to continued fascination with their power, their deeply personal nature and Perpetua’s intimate descriptions of her life just before her death, as well as due to the controversies surrounding them. This thesis contextualizes the exemplary nature of Perpetua’s work by examining its differences from prior martyrological accounts, namely the Acts of the Gallic martyrs (177 AD) and the Acts of the Scillitan Martyrs (180 AD). Following this, the thesis examines the modes of gendered violence employed against Perpetua during her life and her execution in 203 AD, both from the state and from family, and her resistances to these violences.

  • Tertullian's Ideal Christian
    TERTULLIAN’S IDEAL CHRISTIAN: The Ideals of Persecution and Martyrdom in the True Christian Life By Robert Mooney A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Religious Studies University of Alberta Robert Mooney, 2014 ii TERTULLIAN’S IDEAL CHRISTIAN: The Ideals of Persecution and Martyrdom in the True Christian Life ABSTRACT What mattered most to Tertullian was the fate of the Christian soul. During this early period in Christian history, the threat of persecution came to the forefront of Christian thought with a change in government leadership or opposition from other communities. To combat the fear of persecution and remain on the path towards salvation Tertullian saw a need for Christians to be distinct from other communities in Carthage. The development of this identity and why it may have been acceptable to the Carthaginian Christian community is the focus of this essay. To address Tertullian’s argument for the ideal Christian requires evidence to justify the ideal. Do events and attitudes from the past intertwine within the communities in Carthage and Africa during Tertullian’s life? Is Tertullian’s writing, much of which occurred between 196- 207 A.D.,1 consistent with the reports of past writers? This information would allow for a sympathetic look at his writing and intentions. The approach taken in this essay is to examine the development of Tertullian’s argument in six parts. The first will briefly examine the arrival of Christians in Africa and some of the influences on the adoption of a retributive Christianity.

  • The Passion of the Scillitan Martyrs
    The Passion of the Scillitan Martyrs. THE PASSION OF THE SCILLITAN MARTYRS. by 281 ANDREW RUTHERFORD, B.D. Translation by Prof. J. A. Robinson. Introduction by A. R. 524 Introduction. The Passion of the Scillitan Martyrs. ———————————— 283 Introduction. ———————————— The Scillitan Martyrs were condemned and executed at Carthage on the 17th July, a.d. 180. The martyrs belonged to Scili, a place in that part of Numidia which belonged to pro- consular Africa. The proconsul at the time, who is said by Tertullian to have been the first to draw the sword against the Christians there, was P. Vigellius Saturninus. The consuls for the year were Præsens II. and Condianus. Marcus Aurelius had died only a few months before. The exact date of the martyrdom was long under dispute, and the question has recently arisen whether the Acts were originally written in Latin or Greek. Baronius placed the date as late as 202. The text had become corrupt in passing through various Latin and Greek versions and transcriptions, and it was long impossible to recognize the names of the consuls for the year in the first line of the piece. But M. Leon Renier conjectured that the word bis pointed to a consul’s name underlying the word preceding it, and suggested the year 180, when Præsens and Condianus were consuls. This conjecture was confirmed by Usener’s publication in 1881 of a Greek version from a ninth century ms. in the Bibliothèque Nationale at Paris, though even here the names, though recognizable, were in a corrupt form. Usener believed this version to be a translation from a Latin original, and his theory has been con- firmed by Mr.

Through a critical evaluation of The Martyrdom of Pionius the Presbyter and his Companions as a case study, the focus of the investigation is on notions of writing and writing with the body as a means to create an individual and cultural memory.

  • April 2019 Board Meeting
    1 Board Meeting Notes (March 2019) Last month, the Official Board of Pequea Evangelical Congregational Church met on Tuesday, March 5, 2019, to conduct the business of the church. In attendance at the meeting were Rev. Jonathan Brown, Rodney Peachey, Alan Kinsey, Carl Sandoe, Wilmer Stoltzfus, Mary Jane Stoltzfus, and Jesse Bills. The meeting opened with a reading from Matthew 18:11-20, followed by a time of prayer. The board thereafter heard the customary reports, of which the treasurer's report noted that February's income exceeded February's expenses by $60.36. The pastor's report noted four regular Sunday morning worship services, two church events (the hymnsing on February 10 and the movie night on February 23), three meetings with other district pastors, publication of the Pequea Proclaimer, finishing ten books, and accomplishing a few calls and contacts, although this was limited owing to the pastor having come down with influenza. The stewards offered no report. The trustees reported that they had not yet pursued any action regarding the water leak producing the stain on the sanctuary ceiling above the public, but that they had placed an extra 2x6 up there to facilitate easier access. The stain did not, as of the time of the meeting, seem to have worsened; they suggested perhaps it was only the one windy rainstorm that had caused the damage. Under the heading of old business, the board again took up preparations for the Pequea Valley School District Spring Fling. Although not all personnel who staffed our church's table at the 2017 Spring Fling are available this year, our church will still be represented by the pastor and several others, and intends to utilize the same game wheel built in 2017 by Jerry Zimmerman.

  • Producing and Contesting Martyrdom in Pre-Decian Roman North Africa
    Producing and Contesting Martyrdom in Pre-Decian Roman North Africa Carly Daniel-Hughes Introduction In his defense of the Christian faith, the Apology, the Christian writer Tertullian of Carthage mocks that, while imperial officials slaughter Christians, when they spill their blood they merely swell the ranks of the faithful. “The blood of the martyrs is seed,” he retorts.1 Yet the power that Tertullian gives the mar- tyrs was not the obvious outcome of Roman violence against Christ-followers. Many people in the Roman world incurred corporeal violence at the hands of the Roman juridical system (imprisonment, torture, and in some cases, death), yet few subjected to these punishments were memorialized as martyrs. It was in the recording, retelling, and remembering of their deaths—in the attribution of cosmic and theological significance to them—that the martyrs were produced and given their dominant place in the Christian imagination.2 Tertullian (ca. 160–220 ce) was integral to this discursive effort. Along with others, such as Origen and Irenaeus, he constructed and theorized “martyr- dom,” and then promoted it to his community.3 Those who died for their religious allegiance (or who were willing to do so), these theorists held, were imitators of Christ’s passion.4 They interpreted the martyrs’ deaths in sacrificial terms and drew on biblical images and language to do so.5 Their visions of mar- 1.

  • THE EARLIEST COLLECTION of PAUL's EPISTLES . . . Lewis Foster
    THE EARLIEST COLLECTION OF PAUL'S EPISTLES LEWIS FOSTER, PH.D. A study of the making of the New Testament indicates the presence of different stages through which the Scriptures passed before coming to their final form. First came the time of writing; but before all the writings were completed the period of collection had already begun; and finally the era of canonization provided the final form for the collections.1 The purpose of this study is to essay the evidence for the earliest collection of Paul's epistles and, coming to a realization of the paucity of notices concerning the first collection, to offer suggestion by analogy and in- ference that would seem both probable and assist in treating other prob- lems associated with the writings of Paul. Failure to differentiate between the two periods of collecting and canonizing has led to frequent misinterpretation of detail. Although the concept of the canon antedated the actual use of the term, it was not until the time of Athanasius (296-373) that the phrase "canon of Scripture" was employed to mean the list of books reckoned as Holy Scripture.2 As far as our records go, it is not until the decade 170-180 that the church undertook seriously the task of drawing up such lists, e.g. the Muratorian Canon.3 Discussion concerning these lists continues to the time of the Synods at Carthage in 397 and 419.4 Harnack describes the activity of the church in this period as that of "selection."5 In these years, he main- tained, the church was selecting which books belonged to the Bible and which did not.
