This is Origen's great apologetical work, undertaken in answer to the attack on Christianity by the pagan philosopher Celsus. The text that Origen composed to refute Celsus's self-styled "True Discourse" consists of eight books, and belongs to the latest years of his life. It has always been regarded as the great apologetic work of antiquity; and no one can peruse it without being struck by the multifarious reading, wonderful acuteness, and rare subtlety of mind that it displays. It is a great work that well deserves the notice of the students of Apologetics and of Early Christianity in general. This new edition features revised notes, a revised introduction, and a freshly-typeset text.
