Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Among the Christian authors of the third and early fourth centuries, criticism of pagan practices is very important. These attacks are, in fact, so abundant that one cannot fail to wonder about the reasons for this profusion. This theme thus appears as an organic component of the works of African Christian authors at the dawn of the Constantinian peace. These authors had built their argumentative apparatus from a meticulous observation of the socio-cultural reality of their society. Their writings are therefore a fundamental element for understanding the beginning of the construction of an anti-pagan movement within African society of the Later Roman period.
