Description
"One of the most readable and inspiring surveys of the development of theology of the early Church is to be found in the introduction on faith, theology, and creeds in this volume. . . . Dr. Hardy here clearly interprets the scope of the vast, yet delicate, problem faced by the Fathers in the period of the Ecumenical Councils.
"The first three [parts] comprise a biographical sketch and a consideration of the chief writings of three of the most dominant Christian thinkers of the fourth century, Athanasius, Gregory of Nazianzus and Gregory of Nyssa. The fourth general part is a well-selected series of documents illustrating the 'understanding, misunderstanding, and final definition' in the Christological controversies from the early fourth to the late seventh centuries, including the Third Council of Constantinople." - Living Church
The Editor: Edward Rochie Hardy, Cambridge University, was formerly Professor of Church History at Berkeley Divinity School, New Haven, Connecticut.
In collaboration with Cyril C. Richardson, Th.D., D.D.
