Marcus Minucius Felix

Jerome's De Viris Illustribus #58 speaks of him as "Romae insignis causidicus" but in that he is probably only improving on the expression of Lactantius who speaks of him as "non ignobilis inter causidicos loci. "
He is now exclusively known by his Octavius a dialogue on Christianity between the pagan Caecilius Natalis and the Christian Octavius Januarius. [citation needed].
