Synopsis:
Since his death on a Persian battlefield in AD 363, the violent end of the Emperor Julian (Flavius Claudius Julianus, 331?-363) has become synonymous with the death of paganism. Vilified throughout history as the ’Apostate’, the young philosopher-warrior was the last and arguably the most potent threat to Christianity. The Last Pagan examines Julian’s emergence as the sole survivor of a political dynasty soaked in blood, and traces his journey from an aristocratic Christian childhood to his initiation into pagan cults.
