Octavius

by Marcus Minucius Felix

Octavius is an ancient Roman dialogue that explores the religious beliefs and debates of the early Christian era. Through a conversation between a Christian lawyer named Octavius and his skeptical pagan friend Caecilius, the text delves into the nature of God, the existence of evil, and the role of reason and faith in religious belief. Set against the backdrop of the Roman Empire, Octavius offers a unique glimpse into the intellectual and spiritual landscape of the time, highlighting the tensions between traditional paganism and the emerging Christian faith.
