Description
Summary:This beautifully produced volume is very encouraging, above all for those who had begun to suppose that patristic scholarship was a dying profession, even though eight years elapsed between the conference in 1999 and the publication of the acts in 2007. Of the nine contributors five are from Ireland, one from England, two from America, and one from Germany.

Huisking Professor of Theology at Notre Dame, argues for a close connection between the understanding of the persons of the Trinity and the person of Christ in the first five centuries.
