A reflection on St. Cyprian, his life and martyrdom.
Here are the two treatises I mentioned:
On the Unity of the Church: www.newadvent.org/fathers/0507...
On the Lord's Prayer: www.newadvent.org/fathers/0507...
If you want to read the entire Acts of Cyprian, you can do so online here: archive.org/details/owen-earl...
(This is a little different in places than what I read in the video on account of some advances in textual criticism since Owen made his translation, but the story isn't affected in any substantial way.)
Abbreviations (SBL Handbook of Style, 2nd. ed., where available):
• Acts Cyp. - The Acts of Cyprian
• Don. - Cyprian's Treatise Ad Donatus, dating from around 246
• St. Jerome, Vir. ill. - De viris illustribus, On Illustrious Men
• St. Pontius of Carthage, Vit. Cyp. - Life of St. Cyprian
• St. Hilary of Poitiers, Comm. Matt. - Commentary on Matthew
The book of Cyprian's treatises I was holding is disappointing also in that it is currently out of print. But there's a selection of a few of Cyprian's treatises from St. Vladimir's here:

The four-volume translation and commentary on Cyprian's letters is some pretty advanced stuff, but if you'd like to have a look at it, it's available here:
