St. Cyprian was a third century theologian and bishop of Carthage, who led the Christians of North Africa during a period of intense persecution from Rome. Upon his execution he became the first bishop-martyr of Africa. His refined Latin rhetoric led to his being considered the pre-eminent Latin writer of Western Christianity until Jerome and Augustine. His theology was chiefly based on the central idea of the unity and uniqueness of the church.
