Descrição
Resumo:Cyprian served as bishop of Carthage from 248 until his martyrdom in 258. He guided the African Christian church through crises of persecution and division. His theology places the episcopal college at the centre of the church, as the guarantor of its unity, purity, and sanctifying power. His thought proved a troublesome guide for the African church as it negotiated the transition from persecuted to established church.
