| Summary: | TheApology for Origen, commenced by Pamphilus of Caesarea in 307, completed by Eusebius of Caesarea, and now surviving only in the Latin of Rufinus, is coupled in this volume with Rufinus’ tract On the Adulteration of Origen’s Writings. If the book contained no more than a sound edition with an exemplary translation and a battery of references to cognate passages in the works of Origen, it would be an ornament to a distinguished series. Its value is enhanced, however, by the long introduction, in which the editor undertakes his own apology for Origen, exposing the fragility both of the charges relayed by Pamphilus and of the libels which resulted in the condemnation of fifteen tenets widely ascribed to Origen at the Second Council of Constantinople in 553. |
