Opis

The seven documents in this book, which appear for the first time in an English translation from Greek and Latin, constitute a unique contemporary witness to the stalwart opposition of the monk Maximus the Confessor to seventh-century imperial edicts enforcing adherence to the doctrines of monoenergism and monothelitism.

Recenzje

... an impressive addition to Professor Chadwick's series Oxford Early Christian Texts, and a timely contribution to the growing range of research tools which afford better access to the world of this irrepressible saint.
