Dr Nico Swartz from the Department of Roman Law, History of Law and Comparative Law in the Faculty of Law at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently launched his Master dissertation (Latin), Historia Persecutionis: The martyr accounts of Victor of Vita in book form. In this book the Historia Persecutionis is judged from a historical perspective and events are recounted as they actually occurred in a narrative form. Dr Swartz is the first doctoral fellow of the UFS’s Faculty of Law and also received book prizes and merit awards for Latin studies at the university. He is also the author of various articles. The book was published by SUN MeDIA Bloemfontein. Here is Dr Swartz (middle) with his two study leaders from the Department of Classical Languages, Prof. Louise Cilliers and Dr Dirk Coetzee.
