Description
Summary:A large number of sixth-century theological documents produced by opponents of the Council of Chalcedon survive in Syriac. One of the most extensive of these concerns the controversy between Peter of Kallinikos, patriarch of Antioch (581–91), and Damian, patriarch of Alexandria, over the latter's claim that ‘the characteristic properties’, namely ingeneracy, generacy, and procession, were themselves the hypostases of the Trinity. Peter's refutation of this took the form of three long books of which only the third, consisting of 50 chapters, survives complete. One of the distinctive features of Peter's rebuttal is his use of a great number of lengthy quotations from earlier Greek Fathers.
