Julian Against the Apostates

A Translation and Reconstruction of Julian’s Against the Galileans

By: M. David Litwa

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

For the first and only time in history, a Roman emperor penned a thorough and profound attack on the greatest “disease” (as he put it) affecting the inhabited world—Christianity. No one was better informed about Christian practice and belief than Julian, who had been (an apparently devout) Christian for the first twenty years of life, and had received a thorough training in biblical studies before he left the "darkness" and walked into the light of Hellenic spirituality.
This translation of Julian's Against the Galileans supersedes that of R. Joseph Hoffmann, who based his translation on an outdated edition published in 1885. Dr. Litwa translates the critical text of Emanuela Masaracchia (1990) and adds more than a dozen additional fragments or testimonies discovered since 1990. He provides a commentary on each fragment or testimony, as well as a reconstruction designed for grasping Julian’s argument as a whole.
This up-to-date translation will greatly interest skeptics, atheists, agnostics, Christians, burned-out Christians, ancient historians, and anyone interested in biblical interpretation, Greek mythology, and philosophy.

Part II missing

Part II was missing so in unable to listen to it. Hope this gets fixed.
