The Conversion of Saint Cyprian tells the story of a famous North African sorcerer who was conquered by the Cross and became a devout Christian. After enlisting an army of demons to seduce the virtuous maiden Justina, he was repeatedly rebuffed by the power of Christ and decided to abandon his wicked ways. In addition to being an inspiring tale of redemption, the Conversion provides a historical look at pagan religion and witchcraft as described by an insider. This edition contains an unabridged translation of the fourth-century Greek text together with illuminating notes and an introduction containing further biographical information on the saint. If there is one thing that this ancient tale can teach us, it is that it is never too late to repent.
