| Summary: | The author, who teaches at the Hungarian Reformed Theological Institute in Transylvania, presents here a book based on his doctoral work at Edinburgh about his ‘hero’. An introduction of 80 pages precedes a varied selection of annotated passages from Theodoret in translation. The almost exclusive theme of the book is Theodoret's Christology, which, it is suggested, has been regularly traduced. Good is the sympathy the author brings to his subject, as also is the budget of texts. The account of Theodoret's approach and terminology is basically reliable. Weaker is the analysis of what was at stake between Cyril and Theodoret and absent a description of the dialectic of their perceptible rapprochement. |
