Description :
The Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers: Second
Series contains in fourteen volumes the works of the Greek Fathers from
Eusebius to John of Damascus and the Latin Fathers from Hilary to Gregory the
Great. Several of the writings appear for the first time in English. The first
three volumes are a complete collection of the historical writings of the
Fathers, whose permanent value as the primary sources is universally
acknowledged. Other volumes contain the works of eminent figures in early
Christian history, such as Athanasius, Jerome, and Ambrose. The series concludes
with the canons and decrees of the seven ecumenical councils, as well as canons
of local synod with ecumenical acceptance. The
Second Series is edited by
Philip Schaff, eminent church historian and professor at Union Theological
Seminary, NY, and Henry Wace, Principal of Kings College, London.
