In The Darkening Age, Catherine Nixey tells the little-known – and deeply stunning – story of how a militant faith intentionally tried to extinguish the teachings of the Classical world, ushering in unquestioning adherence to the ‘one true religion’.
The Roman Empire had been beneficiant in embracing and absorbing new creeds. However with the approaching of Christianity, every part modified. This new religion, regardless of preaching peace, was violent, ruthless and illiberal. And as soon as it grew to become the faith of empire, its zealous adherents set concerning the destruction of the outdated gods. Their altars have been upturned, their temples demolished and their statues hacked to items. Books, together with nice works of philosophy and science, have been consigned to the pyre. It was an annihilation.
