The Christian and the Supernatural in Late Antiquity
Online Book Launch: The Christian and the Supernatural in Late Antiquity
5 November 2026 | 5:00 PM CET | Online Event
We warmly invite scholars, students, and anyone interested in Late Antique history, Christianity, and the supernatural to join us for the book launch of The Christian and the Supernatural in Late Antiquity, edited by Ryan Denson and Charlotte Spence and recently published by Trivent Publishing.
ABOUT THE BOOK
This edited collection brings together twelve chapters spanning the second to the eighth centuries CE which explore how Late Antique Christians navigated the supernatural in a world undergoing profound religious and cultural transformation. From inherited Greco-Roman traditions to emerging Christian interpretations of reality, the contributions examine the complex relationship between faith, belief, and the supernatural.
The Christian and the Supernatural in Late Antiquity is published in hybrid Open Access, with three chapters freely available to download and read on our website HERE.
PROGRAMME
To celebrate the publication of the volume, we will also be joined by two of its contributors, who will present lectures based on their chapters:
“The First-Born of Satan”: Demonic Influence and Christian Identity in the Writings of the Church Fathers
Joshua Littell
Dreams and the Supernatural in Late Antiquity
Frederick Kimpton
The lectures will offer two fascinating perspectives on the ways Christians understood, experienced, and interpreted supernatural phenomena in Late Antiquity.

Clients say
I am most pleased to recommend Trivent publishing to anyone who is at the “publish a book” stage of life. The team is professional, outstanding, supportive, they are intelligent editors who will direct, not coddle, an author on his/her journey to publication.
I have been working with the Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence since its debut in 2017. It has been a pleasant experience to see how the papers take shape in the process from submission to peer review to publication. The editor-in-chief together with the Trivent team do a tremendous job and are always seeking quality above all!
I’ve participated in two conferences organized by Trivent in the last few years and both were a nice experience – went smoothly and had decent talks in good spirit. When it came to managing manuscripts, I was surprised by the professionalism by which they helped my text get published. I definitely enjoyed working with them!
