These Legendary Tales of Antiquity Are Finally Available in English

These Legendary Tales of Antiquity Are Finally Available in English

For forty years, an unassuming professor behind the Iron Curtain published astonishing best-sellers on the subject of Antiquity. People in the West knew about them, but, for a long time, the lingering effects of Russian Cold War policies made it impossible to publish these gems in English.
Now, finally, here they are.

The cast of characters is vast, and the interconnections between pagan authors and statesmen and Christian thinkers such as Ambrose and St. Augustine are fascinating. I've read this book twice already and given it to friends to read. Truly worth your time.

An antique book lies open, displaying handwritten text in a language that appears historical or script-like. The pages are yellowed with age, suggesting the book is old. The thick pages and binding add to the vintage feel, resting on a wooden surface.

A masterfully written journey through the tumultuous reign of Constantine's sons and the poignant rise of Julian the Apostate. The gripping narrative of Constantius' cruelty and the vivid depiction of Julian's transformation from a quiet, bookish orphan to a ruler of immense power create a stark contrast that lingers long after reading.
