Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Work of St. Optatus, Bishop of Milevis, Against the Donatists: With Appendix; Translated Into English With Notes Critical, Explanatory, Theological and Historical St. Optatus, Bishop of Milevis in Africa, is perhaps the least known of all the Fathers of the Church. His treatise against the Donatists - the one work that he left to posterity, was translated into French in 1564. It is extremely improbable that, but for this exception, it has, until now, ever appeared in any language save Latin. It is quite certain that it has never yet been clothed in an English dress. There is indeed an advertisement still to be seen in The Oxford Library of the Fathers, in which it was announced (in 1848) that a translation of St. Optatus into English would ´soon´ appear. Sixty-eight years have elapsed; but this intention has not yet been carried into execution. Until recently St. Optatus could hardly be found, even in the original Latin, anywhere but in the edition published by Du Pin at Antwerp in 1702, and subsequently incorporated by Migne. His work was until 1870 out of the reach of all persons who had not access to the largest libraries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
