Embedded within the texts of (1) The Scilitan martyrs, (2) The
account of Montanus, Lucius, and their Companions, (3) The
martyrdom of Marian and James, (4) and The martyrdom of Cyprian of
Carthage there is a powerful guide for living in the aftermath of
trauma. These stories offered pathways to essential elements for
recovery to its historical readership. These include beliefs and a
number of positive religious coping strategies that revolved around
a sense of safety, re-establishing community relationships, an
integrated sense of the self, and the use of the body. This book
vividly demonstrates that hagiographies played a vital role for
helping trauma survivors recover and live in the aftermath of
disaster.
