I've never heard of him. Do post a summary of what you find out as I'd be interested to know who he was.

http://www.earlychurch.org.uk/justin.php--this has a lot of references which may prove useful.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Martyr--The plain vanilla option of Wikipedia.

Evakian has posted what I have been able to find out about him so far.
It seems like a lot of sources at first glance but they all say the same thing.
Doesn't seem to be to much about the guy.

I have been only able to read a limited amount of information on his Philosophy and how he reached his conclusions.

What I find interesting is, he was raised a pagan and ultimately became Christian.
I also find it interesting that he couldnt muster an arguement that wasnt confusing. So he tried in his own way to transform his arguements taking examples from the pagan gods.
