Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Apostolic Fathers, Vol. 1: The Epistles of Ss; Clement of Rome and Barnabas and the Shepherd of Hermas The present volume of the Ancient and Modern Library of Theological Literature is one of a series intended to instruct the general reader in the knowledge of the early Fathers of the Christian Church. With this view we have placed as a background the learned and well-written history by the late Professor Burton, of the first century. It may thus be learned how the Church passed through the Apostolic era into that of the "Apostolic Fathers." These Fathers belong to the period between the close of the New Testament Canon and the days of St Irenæus (A.D. 160) - a period during which the record of the progress of the Church and of its heroes is very scanty. From the time of the great Bishop of Lyons onwards we have an abundant Church literature, and much fuller details in history than before. We see at that epoch how the Church had spread itself far and wide, but the seed had grown almost secretly. There were many writers during the interval whose works have perished, though, as we shall presently see, it is even now possible that some of them may yet be found buried away in the lumber rooms of Eastern monasteries. The Apostolic Fathers thus belong to the intervening period we have named. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
