The Silver Cross; Or the Carpenter of Nazareth by Eugene Sue is a reimagining of the dealings surrounding the decision to crucify Jesus of Nazareth and the politics of Jerusalem during his life. Sue argues in favor of socialism through his scathing portrayal of capitalism. Excerpt: "It was about the fifteenth year of the reign of Emperor Tiberius that I, Genevieve, a slave of Aurelia, the wife of a Roman named Gremion and located in Marseilles, departed from Marseilles with my mistress and her husband for Judea. The dominion of the Romans, at that period, extended from one end of the world to the other. Judea had submitted to them, as a dependent of the province of Syria, governed by a magistrate from Rome. Several vessels departed from Marseilles for the country of the Israelites."
