Description
Summary:Among the Pseudo-Basiliana there is a treatise, which in the manuscript tradition is merged with Basil’s Contra Eunomium, of which it constitutes the fourth and fifth books. It is usually believed to have been written before 360 ad, probably by Apollinaris of Laodicea. In my opinion, however, the author of the work polemicizes with Eunomius not through the doctrines of Apollinaris, but through the Trinitarian theology of the Cappadocians, and the pneumatology of Gregory Nazianzen. It was therefore probably written towards the end of the fourth century.
