| Summary: | This essay argues that the lists of pre-Constantinian persecuting emperors are characteristic of Christian chrono-historiography. The examples examined here concern the lists of two or seven emperors and extend from the early 4th century AD to the 5th century AD. Little attention has been given to the fact that these lists correspond to numeric models that highlight their canonical nature and function. These canonical lists perform the function of building and transmitting a public memory of the pre-Constantinian Church, following traditional models of memory such as the damnatio memoriae. |
