Description

Offers new insights into the so-called martyrdom movement that occurred in Cordoba around 850AD. It suggests that Eulogius, who witnessed and recorded the martyrdoms, recast both the events and the ideal of sanctity to make the Cordoban martyrs appear more like their ancient Roman counterparts.
