Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of Penance, Vol. 1: Being a Study of the Authorities; For the Whole Church to A. D. 450; For the Western Church From A. D. 450 to A. D. 1215; The Whole Church to A. D. 450 These studies have occupied the writer in his available time for a good many years. They should explain themselves. They are a succession of studies of the primary authorities on the Penance of the Christian Church. Together the writer has ventured to call them A History of Penance. For those who use them some suggestions may be offered. (1) Mature theological students will read them as they please. (2) Students who are not ye familiar with the first two Christian centuries may do well to begin with the chapter headed The Decian Persecution. (3) Readers who are not students of theology, but who wish to see the results of these studies, will find what they want in the two review chapters, the ninth and the fifteenth. The writer has hoped to distinguish by the use of a capital P the employment of the word Penance for the institution or sacrament from other employments of the word, as that for penalty. It is not an altogether easy distinction: and it may be that it has not been made very well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
