Written by the early Church Father Tertullian, "Ad Martyras" (To the Martyrs) is a powerful Christian meditation on martyrdom. It reflects the intense emotional and spiritual landscape of Christians facing persecution in Roman North Africa. In the second part of this collection, "The Passion of Saints Perpetua and Felicitas", one of the oldest and most notable early Christian texts, provides a firsthand account of the imprisonment, trials, and martyrdom of a group of catechumens in Carthage around 203. Both works emphasize the idea of martyrdom as a spiritual battle against demonic forces.
