Description
Résumé:These eleven essays, preceded by an introduction by Averil Cameron, derive from a conference held in Oxford in 2006 to mark the publication in 2005 of the Acts of the Council of Chalcedon in an English translation by Richard Price and Michael Gaddis. I reviewed that three-volume book in JTS, ns 59 (2008), pp. 380–3. I would add to what I wrote there that it notably advances historical understanding of the council and its business: it has rendered more accessible its records and, by the generally candid and unpartisan respect evident in the annotations and mostly well-judged comment, it enables all students to evaluate the long-standing, if not indeed permanent, theological significance of the council. The same approach and the same virtues are evident in the present companion volume.
