The African Fabiola: Or The Church Of Carthage In The Days Of Tertullian (1881) is a historical novel by Albert Pillet. The book is set in Carthage during the time of Tertullian, an early Christian writer and theologian who lived in the second century AD. The story follows the life of Fabiola, a wealthy and beautiful young woman who is a pagan but becomes interested in Christianity after witnessing the compassion and love of the Christians around her. Fabiola's journey towards conversion is not an easy one, as she faces opposition from her family and society. She also has to confront her own doubts and fears as she struggles to reconcile her old beliefs with her new faith. Along the way, she meets many other Christians, including Tertullian himself, who guide and inspire her in her spiritual journey.The African Fabiola is a richly detailed and vividly imagined portrayal of life in ancient Carthage, with its bustling markets, opulent villas, and vibrant religious traditions. It also provides a fascinating glimpse into the early days of Christianity, as it spread throughout the Roman Empire and faced persecution and opposition from the ruling authorities.Overall, The African Fabiola is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of faith, love, and redemption in a historical setting. It is a must-read for anyone interested in early Christian history and the role of women in the early Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
