Book excerpt: Saint Gregory of Nazianzus was a fourth century Church Father, whose defense of the doctrine of the Trinity (God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) made him one of the greatest champions of orthodoxy against Arianism. Following his death, as Gregory’s works circulated throughout the empire, they exacted a large influence on theological thought. In 451 he was designated as ‘Theologian’ by the Council of Chalcedon —a title held by no others, save John the Apostle and Symeon the New Theologian.

Book excerpt: Saint Gregory the Great was Pope from 590 to 604, launching the famous Gregorian Mission, the first recorded large-scale mission from Rome, to convert the pagan Anglo-Saxons of England to Christianity. The epithet “the Great” reflects Gregory’s status as a celebrated writer as well as a ruler. The fourth and final of the traditional Latin Fathers of the Church, Gregory is now regarded as the first exponent of a truly medieval, sacramental spirituality. His Commentary on Job and his handbook for rulers, Pastoral Rule, were extremely popular treatises throughout the middle ages, while the Dialogues feature a compelling life of Saint Benedict and his many miracles. Gregory’s works provided practical wisdom and enlightenment for the people of the Dark Ages.

Book Synopsis Delphi Collected Works of Athanasius of Alexandria (Illustrated) by : Athanasius of Alexandria

Download or read book Delphi Collected Works of Athanasius of Alexandria (Illustrated) written by Athanasius of Alexandria. This book was released on 2024-03-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint Athanasius was a fourth century theologian and ecclesiastical statesman, who was the chief defender of Christian orthodoxy in the battle against Arianism — the heresy that the Son of God was a creature of like, but not of the same, substance as God the Father. He upheld that the Son of God, the eternal Word through whom God made the world, entered the world in human form to lead men back to the harmony from which they had fallen away. Later Church fathers in both the West and East highly regarded Athanasius’ writings, revering their devotion to the Word-become-man, pastoral concern and interest in monasticism. Today, Athanasius is considered one of the four great Eastern Doctors of the Catholic Church. This eBook presents Athanasius’ collected works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Download or read book Delphi Collected Works of Saint Jerome (Illustrated) written by Saint Jerome. This book was released on 2022-05-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most learned of the Latin Fathers, Saint Jerome had an eventful life, spending time as a hermit, becoming a priest, serving as secretary to Pope Damasus I and later establishing a monastery at Bethlehem. His most ambitious achievement was his Latin translation of the Bible, the Vulgate, based on a Hebrew version, rather than the Septuagint. He believed that mainstream Rabbinical Judaism had rejected the Septuagint as invalid scriptural texts, due to Hellenistic mistranslations. Jerome’s numerous biblical, ascetical, monastic and theological works went on to have a profound influence in the early Middle Ages. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the ancient world, with both English translations and the original Latin texts. This eBook presents Jerome’s collected works, with illustrations, introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Jerome's life and works * Features the collected works of Jerome, in both English translation and the original Latin * The complete Vulgate, in both English translation (Douay-Rheims), Latin and a separate Dual text * Excellent formatting of the texts * Easily locate the sections you want to read with individual contents tables * Includes Jerome's rare treatises * Provides a special dual English and Latin text, allowing readers to compare the sections and verses paragraph by paragraph — ideal for students * Features two bonus biographies * Ordering of texts into chronological order and literary genres Please visit www.delphiclassics.com to explore our range of Ancient Classics titles or buy the entire series as a Super Set CONTENTS: The Translations The Life of Paulus the First Hermit (c. 375) (Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers edition, 1893) The Dialogue against the Luciferians (379) The Perpetual Virginity of Blessed Mary (383) The Life of Saint Hilarion (390) The Life of Malchus, the Captive Monk (391) De Viris Illustribus (393) Against Jovinianus (393) To Pammachius against John of Jerusalem (c. 397) Apology for himself against the Books of Rufinus (402) Against Vigilantius (406) Against the Pelagians (417) Commentary on Daniel (c. 417) (Translated by Gleason L.
