Alexandrian Christianity: selected translations of Clement and Origen with introductions and notes

J. E. L. Oulton (Editor), Henry Chadwick (Editor), Clement, Origen
"Deals with Clement of Alexandria and Origen, influential 'Church Fathers' of the second century. These two important personages are linked together not only because they both lived in Alexandria in the same period but also because they were both influential in making the Greek influence felt in religion. They did much to provide the philosophical basis for Christian asceticism which was later to find expression in the monastic orders ... No theologian or theological library will want to be without this and the companion volumes of the series." [Kirkus Reviews]
