Quo Vadis: This translation, therefore, aims to be faithful to both Em glish and Polish. The needless iterations which are legit `mate in Polish have been dropped as illegitimate in English. Thus a large number of ands, buts, and meanwhiles have been weeded out, as well as all such phrases as so say ing, or with these words, which retard the reader without enlightening him. He began to do so and so has been altered into He did so and so. More important still, Pol ish idioms and locutions, meaningless to English ears, have been rendered into the nearest possible equivalents with tho same object of aiding the reader, and the Latin terms have been carefully translated in the text itself.

A young Roman soldier falls in love only to discover that his sweetheart belongs to a strange new cult—a group that meets in secret to worship their one and only god. The romance of Marcus Vinicius and Lygia unfolds amid the decadence of ancient Rome, where bloodthirsty crowds flock to gladiatorial contests and a mad emperor sets fire to his own city. With its captivating blend of fictional and real characters, this historical novel contrasts the worldly opulence of the Roman aristocracy with the poverty, simplicity, and spiritual power of the early Christians. Quo Vadis ("Where are you going?") was one of the world's first bestsellers and contributed toward the author's 1905 receipt of the Nobel Prize in literature. Originally written in Polish, its tale of the Roman suppression of Christianity echoes the Russian domination of Poland.
