in some editions there's a period instead of <the> <a> semicolon in front of "I felt no fear"

It seems in some editions there's a period instead of the/a semicolon in front of "I felt no fear."
Should I use "a" or "the"?

In fact, you could use either 'a' or 'the' here.
'A semi-colon' would be non-specific, just like 'a period'.
'The semi-colon' would refer to the specific one in the sentence that you've just quoted.

A period separates to completed sentences. A semi colon connects two closely related complete sentences. In this case the two sentences are closely related.
