Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of the Councils of the Church, Vol. 2: From the Original Documents This Translation of what may fairly be called the classical work on the History of the Councils of the Church was originally undertaken, with the Author´s sanction, by the Rev. W. Clark, Vicar of Taunton, who edited the first volume, and it was only at his urgent request that the present Editor undertook the second. This must be his apology to the public for interposing in a work which they will share his regret that Mr. Clark´s engagements did not permit him to continue himself. The former volume comprised Books I. and II. of the German text, with the Appendix on the Apostolical Canons, bringing the History down to the close of the First OEcumenical Council at Nicæa in 325; the present volume carries it on, through the next six Books, to the period immediately preceding the opening of the Third (Ecumenical Council at Ephesus in 431. Thanks to the Authors kindness in supplying early copies, the second edition of the original, which had received his latest corrections, has been used throughout. It will have been matter of sincere regret, though hardly of surprise, to Bishop Hefele´s numerous readers to learn, from the Preface to the seventh and last volume of his Conciliengeschichte, published about a year ago, that he has brought it to a conclusion with the Councils of Basle and Florence, without including, according to his original design, the Council of Trent.
