Beschreibung
"Foxe´s Book of Martyrs," despite being little known even among Christians, is a classic of world literature whose impactful content resulted in significant changes in the religious and political consciousness of England. The author, John Foxe, spares readers none of the detailed tortures suffered by martyrs such as Andrew, Matthew, James, John Wycliffe, John Huss, among countless others. Foxe, who himself was persecuted and accused of heresy, turned to writing in the hope that his readers would repudiate the barbarities committed in his days, and indeed, his accounts, recorded during the time of the Reformation, exerted powerful influence on English society. "Foxe´s Book of Martyrs" is a timeless work addressing a subject that, unfortunately, still permeates civilization in the 21st century: religious intolerance. It is a shocking yet revealing read of the difficulty humans have in learning from their past mistakes.
