内容説明
Who were these Pelagians who dared challenge the teaching of the great Augustine and take on the leaders of the early fifth-century Church? What was the message that so alarmed that other ecclesiastical heavyweight, Jerome, thathe immediately denounced it as heresy? The answers to these and other critical questions will be found in this new book: Letters of Pelagius.
Published as a companion volume to the recent Pelagius: A ReluctantHeretic, in which Professor Reesreviewed in the light of modern research the evidence for the causes, course and aftermath of the Pelagian controversy, this new volume contains translations into clear and simple English of letters and minor treatises attributed at various times to Pelagius or his followers. Now English-speaking students of Pelagianism, even if they have little or no knowledge of Latin, will for the first timebe able to read theprimary sources for one of the most persistent heresies of the Western Church. Brief introductions and explanatory footnotes are included.
B.R. REES, Professor Emeritus, has taught Classics at Aberystwyth, Manchester, Cardiff, Birmingham and Lampeter and is President of the Classical Association.
