St. Katharine Of Alexandria

St. Katharine of Alexandria: A Dramatic Legend is a book written by Noell Radecliffe and published in 1859. The book tells the story of St. Katharine, a Christian martyr who lived in the 4th century. The legend follows her journey from a young woman who was well-educated and wealthy to her eventual martyrdom at the hands of the Roman emperor Maxentius. The book is written in a dramatic style and is divided into five acts, each of which portrays a different aspect of St. Katharine's story. The first act introduces the main character and sets the stage for her eventual confrontation with the emperor. The second act focuses on St. Katharine's intellectual prowess and her ability to debate with the greatest minds of her time. The third act portrays her conversion to Christianity and her subsequent persecution by the Roman authorities. The fourth act is the climax of the story, in which St. Katharine is brought before the emperor and refuses to renounce her faith. The final act depicts her martyrdom and her ascension to heaven. Throughout the book, Radecliffe portrays St. Katharine as a brave and virtuous woman who stands up for her beliefs in the face of great adversity. The book also contains themes of faith, love, and sacrifice, making it a compelling read for those interested in religious history and legend.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
