Overview
The Greek and Latin Fathers of the Church are central to the creation of Christian doctrine and the establishment of the Christian Church as a social entity in the first five centuries AD. This series makes available translations of key selected texts by the major Fathers, for the use of all students of the early church. Each volume is the work of a distinguished scholar and theologian, who has selected and translated the most representative texts of the author in question. The books contain a long introduction setting the subject in his historical and philosophical context, as well as a brief introduction and notes on the translations.

Reviews
'Especially impressive in Anatolios's work is his explanation of the Athanasian perspective on sin as 'de-creation' and of the importance of stability in Athanasian soteriology ... worthwhile and recommended.' - Reviews in Religion and Theology 'A worthwhile addition. Those who know nothing about Anthanasius ... will find a reliable guide to his life and thought. The expert too might profit from Dr Anatolios' balanced and sympathetic presentation of the theology. Both will value the well-chosen and extensive extracts ... Dr Anatalios brings a generally pleasing new style of appreciation to his subject.' - Theology
