English A Christian But a Roman E-text prepared by Steven desJardins and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "A Christian But a Roman" by Mór Jókai is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set during the times of the Cæsars, the narrative revolves around the struggles between the emerging Christian faith and Roman paganism, focusing on the lives of a few key characters, particularly the gentle Sophronia and the noble soldier Manlius Sinister. The book captures the moral dilemmas of its characters against the backdrop of political intrigue and personal sacrifice. The opening portion introduces us to the wealthy Senator Mesembrius Vio and his two daughters, Glyceria and Sophronia. The family dynamics are complicated by Glyceria’s scandalous reputation and the senator's secret tolerance for his second daughter’s Christian faith. As Manlius Sinister visits Mesembrius, an impending sense of conflict arises due to his affections for Sophronia, a love complicated by the perilous societal conditions of Rome and the lurking threat presented by Glyceria's past and connections. Through rich dialogue and lush descriptions, the stage is set for a dramatic clash of love, loyalty, and faith in the face of a crumbling empire. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
