| Résumé : |
The purpose of this book is to bring within a single volume a representative selection of extracts from the writings of the early Christian Fathers, covering the main areas of Christian thought.
The extracts, for the most part newly translated by the editors, are arranged by topic under the following headings: God, Trinity, Christ, Holy Spirit, Sin and Grace, Tradition and Scripture, Church, Sacraments, Christian living, Church and Society, and Final Goal. Care has been taken to reflect the full range of writing on these themes - exposition and commentary, homily, epistle and polemic - and the extracts are of sufficient length to show the distinctive flavour of each individual writer. Annotation has been kept to a minimum, but each main section has a short introduction which places the extracts in their particular context within the development of Christian thought. The 19 writers represented include Irenaeus, Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Athanasius, Basil, Gregory of Nyssa, John Chrysostom, Augustine and Leo. |
