| Summary: | This (though Tome III) is the fourth volume of a translation, apparently the first in any language, of Facundus’ Defence of the Three Chapters. The first, which contained a historical and theological introduction, was published in 2002 (Sources Chrétiennes, 471) and there is a fifth to come. I need hardly remind readers of this journal that the emperor Justinian, thinking to win the support of the Monophysites, condemned ‘chapters’ from the writings of Theodore of Mopsuestia, Theodoret of Cyrus, and Ibas of Edessa. In the midst of the ensuing controversy, Facundus, bishop of Hermiane in modern Tunisia, addressed to the emperor a long work defending the chapters: to no great purpose, for the ban was confirmed by a council at Constantinople in 553. |
