Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

St. Justin Martyr is known as the outstanding apologist of the
second century. While the Apostolic Fathers like St. Clement of
Rome, St. Ignatius of Antioch, and St. Polycarp had addressed
members within the Christian fold, St. Justin is considered to be
the first prominent defender of the Christian faith against
non-Christians and the enemies of the Church. The chief sources for
the uncertain and meager chronological data of Justin's life are
his own writings, the two Apologies and the Dialogue with Trypho.
The circumstances leading up to his conversion are recorded in the
first eight chapters of the Dialogue, and the events surrounding
his death are reported in the Acta SS. Justini et Sociorum, an
authentic source of the latter part of the second century.
Historians place his birth in the beginning of the second century
(ca. 100-110 A.D.) at Flavia Neapolis (today Nablus) in Samaria.
Although St. Epiphanius calls him a Samaritan, and he himself
refers to his people as Samarians, Justin was not Jewish in either
race or religion. His family was rather of pagan and Greco-Roman
anscestry. They had come as colonists to Flavia Neapolis during the
reign of Titus (79-81 A.D.), the son of Flavius Vespasian (69-79),
who had built this city and had granted its inhabitants the
privileges of Roman citizens. Obviously, the parents of Justin had
considerable means and could afford to give their son an excellent
education in the pagan culture of the day. Young Justin had a keen
mind, was inquisitive by nature and endowed with a burning thirst
for learning. He tried to broaden his knowledge further by
extensive travels. Driven by an inner urge and a profound
inclination for philosophy, he subsequently frequented the schools
of the Stoics, the Peripatetics, the Pythagoreans, and the
Platonists. He set out to reach the truth; to gain a perfect
knowledge of God was his greatest and only ambition. Dissatisfied
with the Stoics and Peripatetics, he tells us of finding temporary
peace in the philosophy of the Platonists: 'the perception of
incorporeal things quite overwhelmed me and the Platonic theory of
ideas added wings to my mind, so that in a short time I imagined
myself a wise man. So great was my folly that I fully expected
immediately to gaze upon God.'
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of
Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical
understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking.
Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel
Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and
moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade.
The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and
Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a
debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below
