The Vandal persecution of Catholics during the time of the Vandal power in North Africa. Part 1

[@sethhatfield6293]

Subscribed instantly. We need eloquent channels like this one discussing the neglected events of late antiquity

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Appreciate that Seth! Definitely more coming up. Just finishing an introductory video on the the Northern Crusades agains the non-christian Balts, Prussians and Finns. Hope that of use.

[@giahuypham1385]

Another wonderful video on a rather interesting subject, I hope someday you can make a video on the rejection of Christianity by Neoplatonic philosophers.

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Thank you! Hope to be covering plenty of 1st to 5th century philosophy next few months!

Where's part II? =(

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Sorry about that! I have so many projects in the pipeline! Coming up very soon.

[@BernasLL]

@@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361 That's quite alright, don't burn out or rush things. I'll try to catch it when it comes out.

[@Cat_Woods]

Really thoroughly researched, thanks.

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Thx my friend!

[@andrewschuler8733]

I’ve become increasingly fascinated by this time period and would love to learn more about the vandals in particular but the literature is so scarce, do you have any specific book recommendations to start with?

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Victor of Vita's book on the subject of the Vandal invasion of North Africa is really good. Would really recommend. I'll be using that as a source for the vandal persecution of Catholics in a follow-up video.

[@freedomclub6969]

Definitely a newer focus on the channel, I wonder what created it.

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Been meaning to do something on the Vandals for a while!

[@freedomclub6969]

@@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361 The next video as well should be informative. Thank you for your work.

[@jakek.403]

Ayyy, new video

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Thx my friend!

Thanks mate i like the old Vandals

[@kb-tu2kf]

Thanks a lot for your excellent Video. Please give us Part II and, if possible, shed some lighjt on the native population in North Africa, those called ''Berbers'', Amazigh, etc. How they lived through the Vandal episode. And also what became of the Vandal population after their defeat by Belizarius. How many were they anyway ? I read in Augustine's ''The Confessions'' that the natives in Carthage referred to themselves as ''Cananeans'' at that time. So I suppose they spoke a dialect of Phoenician and the elite probably mastered Latin as Augustine himself.

A marvellous video !!! However it is vital to note that Arius was never a consecrated Bishop, rather he was simply a prominent Priest. Indeed the clergy gathered at the First Council of Antioch bristled at the statement that they were 'Arians', since “How could bishops such as we-follow a presbyter?” . Furthermore, it must be clarified that Arius role in ‘Arianism’ was not that of a founder of a sect, since throughout most of the 4th and the 5th centuries AD 'Arianism' was in fact a loose and uneasy coalition of those hostile to Nicaea in general, and the word ‘Homoousios’ in particular.

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Thx Tobias. Yes quite true regarding Arius and his position. Regarding Arianism being almost an 'umbrella' term Augustine mentions there were over seventy 'heresies' in his time with many of these Christian sects having their own and differing thoughts on the nature of Christ from the Catholic view.

[@gnos1s171]

I would recommend doing a video on plotinus' criticism of the gnostics apparently he knew about this group of Christians using some ideas from platonic thought, and plotinus very heavily disagreed with & criticized them ESOTERICA did a great video on it kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIeYppWGhd-Hbbc

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Cheers Cameron, I'll look into that video link. Would love to do some video work on Neoplatonism and related topics.

[@ikengaspirit3063]

Do a video on the Goths and their relations with Catholicism.

[@BernasLL]

Great video! The map shows Gallicia, but it should be Gallaecia, right? Gallicia being a far later nomenclature. Also, I'd really love if anglo-saxon historians (and spanish) stopped using Spain as a short for Hispania, though I understand that's the current convention. Spain is a modern country, with territories in Africa. Hispania is modern Iberia (Spain AND Portugal).

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Thx - glad you liked it! Great point about nomenclature. I'll standardize on the older names. Hopefully, few or no modern names will inadvertently slip in by mistake in future!

Lmao, "Christians not killing other Christians over who is the TRUE Xtian " challenge : FAILED !

[@FlaviusClaudiusJulianus361]

Thx for watching! There were a huge number of Christian 'heresies' in the 4th century and beyond. Will be producing videos on the topic.

[@whitemakesright2177]

And this was the period after Nicaea, when the Christians were much more unified. Before Nicaea, it was a total free for all.

[@GlobalRage]

Catholicism was built upon the rotted pillars of Pagan Rome. Isaac Newton covered this in depth.
