Homo Sum — Complete
1878
Homo Sum, written by Georg Ebers and first published in 1878, is a historical novel set in the early decades of Christianity. The story follows Hermas, a young anchorite living in the Sinai mountains, who grapples with his identity and purpose amidst the tensions of asceticism and desire. As Hermas interacts with Miriam, a shepherdess, he faces a conflict between his hermit life and his yearning for connection, exploring themes of spirituality, penance, and the human condition. This work offers a deep examination of faith and the struggles of the soul during a transformative period in church history.
