One of Charles Kingsley’s most popular novels, Hypatia is a fictionalized account of the life and murder of Hypatia, once considered the greatest living mathematician in the Greco-Roman world. Hypatia focuses on the religious issues surrounding her murder, and is a brilliant yet dark portrait of the passing of old faiths in Greece and Rome.
