Emperor Constantine and His Influence on the Course of Christianity , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 20min

It is largely agreed that Constantine had a dramatic effect on the development of Christianity, that he undeniably altered its future, identity and DNA. Constantine took a significant interest in the Christian faith and its church, deciding to become very involved in establishing the church within his empire; but why? What was Constantine's motivation for doing so? Was Constantine God's agent on a mission to deliver the early Church from fierce persecution? Was it one of his greatest achievements that he helped to establish a foundation for Christianity and its message to be heard around the world? Or was he a pagan who used the gospel for his own ends and led the Church into a compromised condition that would last for centuries? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Reynolds.

The Passion of Sergius and Bacchus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 611min

In AD 357, engulfed in turmoil, the Roman Empire divided itself in two: the West, overrun by barbarian marauders; and the East, prosperous and encroaching toward the Orient, its borders extending and contracting with battles against Persians. To quell growing civil unrest, Constantine the Great made Christianity the state religion, remaking temples to Jupiter into churches of the Anointed One. After Constantine's death, his son, Constantius, took power as Caesar Augustus, high ruler of the empire in Byzantium - the new capital of Rome and home of the Senate - then executed all that remained of their family save his two cousins, Gallus and Julian. Constantius appointed Julian, only 23, Caesar of the West, custodian of Rome against the pillaging tribes. An academic at heart, no one in the empire believed he stood a chance leading the armies of Rome - until one day in Gaul. A great battle altered the course of Julian's career and changed the lives of two soldiers destined to make history.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Reddish.

A History of Rome, Volume 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 490min

With Caesar's assassination comes renewed civil war. The aristocratic senatorial faction is defeated and the Republican form of government is replaced by dictatorship. Caesar's adopted nephew, Augustus, comes to power as the first Roman Emperor and puts into place the most extraordinary experiment in imperial government ever attempted. In the process, he paves the way for a long period of peace, a golden age, the likes of which has never before been seen. The Empire is ruled by one dynasty after another - some good, some bad - until it reaches its apogee during the age of the brilliant Antonine emperors. But chaos follows with a series of corrupt rulers, and only the strong leadership of Diocletion 85 years later brings stability. Shortly afterward, Constantine's rule promotes the new faith of Christianity and makes it the official religion of the empire. But the downward spiral of decay cannot be reversed. Economic disruptions, plague and barbarian invasions prove too much for Rome, and the western half of the empire descends into a maelstrom of ignorance, dispair and random violence from which it will not emerge for many centuries. ungekürzt.

Constantine and the Conversion of Europe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 487min

The turmoil, both physical and mental, which the Roman Empire underwent during the chaotic third century, resulted in a Greco-Roman culture which was essentially exhausted. For a thousand years this culture had spread itself over the Mediterranean world in roughly the same recognizable architecture, law, art and religion. By the end of Diocletian's reign in the opening years of the fourth century, the pagan world had collapsed into the arms of a multicultural religious movement which had spread from the eastern Mediterranean. These were the "mystery religions" which had been in competition with one another for a century. By the time of Constantine, they had spread everywhere within the empire. But one of these religions, Christianity, was chosen by the young emperor. His decision changed the course of history. By putting the bureaucratic weight of the empire behind the Christian church, Constantine brought the new religion into prominence. He gave it the breathing spell it needed to vanquish its rivals and establish its political dominance. But hardly had Constantine's proclamation been made before the new religion began to tear itself apart in a series of recriminations and heresies. Listen and learn how Constantine guided this new force and placed his personal imprimatur on Christianity for all time. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlton Griffin.
