Since the early days of Christianity, martyrdom has had a
particularly honoured place, and 2020 will see the Catholic Church
marking the fiftieth anniversary of the canonization of 40 martyrs
killed during the Reformation in England and Wales. In this
powerful exploration of the significance of martyrdom today,
Catherine Pepinster looks at the lives of over a dozen martyrs,
past and present, to consider how ideas about giving up your life
for your faith have changed over the centuries, and especially the
way martyrs often become caught up in the clash between religion
and politics.
