Description
Deals individually with each Father and collectively with the thought of the schools into which they can be grouped (Asia Minor, Alexandrian, Roman, Greek and African). Describes also the early conflict with Gnosticism, the apocryphal scriptures and pseudo-apostolic writings, and the low state of culture of the pre-Nicene Church which is the general background of early Patristic studies.
