Originally published in 1908, this book presents a concise study regarding the lives and works of Theognostus, Pierius and Peter the Martyr. The text was written in 'an attempt to estimate the teaching of these three Alexandrians with special reference to their adherence or their opposition to the teaching of their great predecessor Origen'. Textual notes are incorporated throughout. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in theology and philosophy.
