520 |a The period 1952-1954 has seen some very outstanding achievements in the field of Greek patristic, only a small proportion of which can be discussed here. One of the most interesting works that have appeared, from the viewpoint of a general survey, is Johannes Quasten's Patrology, so far as it has progressed; and although the obvious complaint might be that no single scholar can now ever hope adequately to cover the entire patristic field, and that in a manual of this sort no author can be treated with all the detail that the specialist would desire, at the same time there is nothing in English of its kind and, as a matter of fact, Quasten's work bids fair to surpass even the German works in this category. The author's decision to include short excerpts from individual authors may seem needless to the scholar; but it is useful to the student and, at the same time, adds a certain liveliness to the book, which by its very nature would otherwise be condemned to remaining an inventory of names and dates. The strong point of the Patrology is its clarity, the fulness of its bibliography and its completeness (for the author has allowed himself a broader scale than Altaner); for example, he can spend three pages on the sixth-century papyrus, discovered in 1941, which gives apparently the stenographers' report of Origen's debate with Bishop Heracleides (A.D. 244/5) on the proper terminology to be used when discussing the Trinity (Patrology II 62ff.).
