Description
Summary:Nicaea (325) and Chalcedon (451) are the two most significant councils in the History of the ancient Church for their theological definitions of Trinitarian dogma. However, Nicaea is the worst known of all the ecumenical councils because the official Acts have not been preserved, if they existed at all, and the most relevant historical source, the Vita Constantini by Eusebius of Caesarea, is not very objective due to the ideology of the author and his involvement in the council itself. All this has conditioned our knowledge, both of the development of the assembly and of the role played by the bishops. This should be interpreted, as this article intends to do, in the light of the new relations that were established between Constantine and the Christian episcopate before the synod (after the emperor’s entry into Rome in 311) and the leading role assigned to the bishops in the administration of the Empire.
