Abstract

It is known that various members of Constantine's family, of his own generation and the generation before, were Christian. It is often taken for granted that Constantine encouraged or required their Christian faith. However, in fact there is only evidence for Constantine's influence on the faith of his mother Helena. This paper examines the evidence for Christianity in the imperial family before Constantine became publicly Christian, and suggests that some of these women may even have been Christian independently of Constantine's influence.

基督教和君士坦丁帝国的女性

众所周知，君士坦丁家族的许多成员，包括他这一代和他之前的一代，都是基督徒。人们通常想当然地认为，君士坦丁鼓励或要求他们信仰基督教。然而，事实上只有证据表明君士坦丁对他母亲海伦娜的信仰产生了影响。本文考察了君士坦丁公开成为基督徒之前皇室中基督教存在的证据，并提出其中一些女性甚至可能独立于君士坦丁的影响而成为基督徒。
