In about 112 AD, he wrote (in Epistles X.96) to the emperor Trajan , asking for advice on how to deal with the followers of Christ in his province, because he was executing so many of them. Pliny wrote: They were in the habit of meeting before dawn on a fixed day. They would recite in alternate verse a hymn to Christ as to a god, and would bind themselves by a solemn oath, not to do any criminal act, but rather that they would not commit any fraud, theft or adultery, nor betray any trust nor refuse to restore a deposit on demand. This done, they would disperse, and then they would meet again later to eat together (but the food was quite ordinary and harmless.) Notice from what Pliny says that: By the beginning of the second century, there was already a Christian community in Bithynia large enough to come to the attention of the Roman governor.

Gardens Guide HOMEPAGE GARDEN TOURS GARDEN FINDER GARDEN HOTELS ... Index to short biographies Pliny the Younger Nephew of Pliny the Elder, also an orator, famed for his charming letters. Pliny's letters give an account of upper class Roman life in the first century and include many references to Pliny's own gardens. [The full set of Pliny's garden letters is on the CD ] The letters were much studied during the renaissance as an authentic source of information on Roman gardens. The excerpt below is from one of Pliny's garden letters. It describes his villa at Tusci:- Many paths are separated by box. In one place you have a little meadow In another place the box is interposed in groups, and cut into a thousand different forms. Sometimes the letters express the name of the master, or that of the designer. Here and there little obelisks rise, mixed alternately with apple trees. Then suddenly, in the midst of this elegant regularity, you are surprised with an imitation of the negligent beauties of rural nature. In the centre is a spot surrounded with a knot of dwarf plane trees. Beyond these are clumps of the smooth and twisting acanthus. Then come a variety of figures and names cut in box. At the upper end of the garden is a semicircular bench of white marble. It is shaded with a vine which is trained upon four small pillars of Carystian marble. Water, gushes from several little pipes from under this bench, as if it were pressed out by the weight of the persons who sit upon it. The water falls into a stone cistern underneath, from whence it is received into a fine polished marble basin, so artfully contrived that it is always full without ever overflowing. When I eat here, the tray of dishes is placed around the margin, while the smaller dishes swim about in the form of little ships and waterfowl. Opposite this is a fountain which is incessantly emptying and filling, for the water which it throws up to a great height falling back again into it, is by means of connected openings returned as fast as it is received.

53. Pliny The Younger On Christ Pliny s Letter to Trajan It is my practice, my lord, to refer to you all matters concerning which I am in doubt. Trajan s Response to Pliny http://www.mc.maricopa.edu/~tomshoemaker/handouts/pliny.html

Pliny's Letter to Trajan: It is my practice, my lord, to refer to you all matters concerning which I am in doubt. For who can better give guidance to my hesitation or inform my ignorance? I have never participated in trials of Christians. I therefore do not know what offenses it is the practice to punish or investigate, and to what extent. And I have been not a little hesitant as to whether there should be any distinction on account of age or no difference between the very young and the more mature; whether pardon is to be granted for repentance, or, if a man has once been a Christian, it does him no good to have ceased to be one; whether the name itself, even without offenses, or only the offenses associated with the name are to be punished. Meanwhile, in the case of those who were denounced to me as Christians, I have observed the following procedure: I interrogated these as to whether they were Christians; those who confessed I interrogated a second and a third time, threatening them with punishment; those who persisted I ordered executed. For I had no doubt that, whatever the nature of their creed, stubbornness and inflexible obstinacy surely deserve to be punished. There were others possessed of the same folly; but because they were Roman citizens, I signed an order for them to be transferred to Rome. Soon accusations spread, as usually happens, because of the proceedings going on, and several incidents occurred. An anonymous document was published containing the names of many persons. Those who denied that they were or had been Christians, when they invoked the gods in words dictated by me, offered prayer with incense and wine to your image, which I had ordered to be brought for this purpose together with statues of the gods, and moreover cursed Christnone of which those who are really Christians, it is said, can be forced to dothese I thought should be discharged. Others named by the informer declared that they were Christians, but then denied it, asserting that they had been but had ceased to be, some three years before, others many years, some as much as twenty-five years. They all worshipped your image and the statues of the gods, and cursed Christ.

Pliny the Younger Letter Concerning the Christian Problem Epistle 97 Pliny to the Emperor Trajan Epistle 98 Trajan to Pliny You have adopted the right course, my dearest Secundus, in investigating the charges against the Christians who were brought before you. It is not possible to lay down any general rule for all such cases. Do not go out of your way to look for them. If indeed they should be brought before you, and the crime is proved, they must be punished; with the restriction, however, that where the party denies he is a Christian, and shall make it evident that he is not, by invoking our gods, let him (notwithstanding any former suspicion) be pardoned upon his repentance. Anonymous informations ought not to be received in any sort of prosecution. It is introducing a very dangerous precedent, and is quite foreign to the spirit of our age.

Letter to Tacitus from Pliny the Younger From The Harvard Classics Y OUR On the 24th of August, about one in the afternoon, my mother desired him to observe a cloud which appeared of a very unusual size and shape. He had just taken a turn in the sun, there Note 1. In the Bay of Naples. Note 2. The Romans used to lie or walk naked in the sun, after anointing their bodies with oil, which was esteemed as greatly contributing to health, and therefore daily practised by them. This custom, however, of anointing themselves, is inveighed against by the satirists as in the number of their luxurious indulgences: but since we find the elder Pliny here, and the amiable Spurinna in a former letter, practising this method, we cannot suppose the thing itself was esteemed unmanly, but only when it was attended with some particular circumstances of an over-refined delicacy. Note 3. Now called Castelamare, in the Bay of Naples. M.
