Omschrijving

In second-century Rome, faith could cost you everything.

When brilliant Athenian philosopher Titus Flavius Clemens arrives in cosmopolitan Alexandria, he seeks only intellectual answers to the questions that haunt him. Instead, he finds an unexpected mentor in Pantaenus, a former Stoic whose teachings about the divine Logos—the Word made flesh—challenge everything Clement thought he knew.

As Clement's philosophical journey becomes a spiritual awakening, he rises to become leader of the famed Catechetical School, pioneering a revolutionary synthesis of Greek philosophy and Christian faith that will shape Western thought for centuries to come.

But when Emperor Septimius Severus issues an empire-wide edict forbidding conversion to Christianity, Clement's teaching becomes a dangerous act of defiance against imperial power. With informants infiltrating the school and former students facing martyrdom, Clement must navigate impossible choices between safety and courage, institutional preservation and prophetic witness.

As persecution intensifies and threatens everything he has built, Clement's greatest challenge isn't just surviving but preserving a legacy that might outlast the Empire itself.

Set against the vivid backdrop of the ancient Mediterranean—from Alexandria's Great Library to Jerusalem's sacred streets to remote Cappadocian highlands—THE ALEXANDRIAN TEACHER weaves meticulous historical detail with profound philosophical questions in the tradition of "The Name of the Rose" and "Silence." This sweeping historical epic illuminates a pivotal moment when one man's intellectual courage helped a persecuted faith transform from obscure sect to world-changing movement.
