Saint Gregory of Nazianzus was a fourth century Church Father, whose defense of the doctrine of the Trinity (God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) made him one of the greatest champions of orthodoxy against Arianism. Following his death, as Gregory’s works circulated throughout the empire, they exacted a large influence on theological thought. In 451 he was designated as ‘Theologian’ by the Council of Chalcedon —a title held by no others, save John the Apostle and Symeon the New Theologian.

Saint Basil the Great was a fourth century Byzantine bishop of Caesarea and an influential theologian that supported the Nicene Creed and opposed the heresies of the early Christian church. His ability to balance his theological convictions with his political connections made Basil a powerful advocate for the Nicene position. He was also known for his care of the poor and underprivileged. Along with Pachomius, Basil is remembered as a father of communal monasticism in Eastern Christianity.

The most learned of the Latin Fathers, Saint Jerome had an eventful life, spending time as a hermit, becoming a priest, serving as secretary to Pope Damasus I and later establishing a monastery at Bethlehem. His most ambitious achievement was his Latin translation of the Bible, the Vulgate, based on a Hebrew version, rather than the Septuagint. He believed that mainstream Rabbinical Judaism had rejected the Septuagint as invalid scriptural texts, due to Hellenistic mistranslations. Jerome’s numerous biblical, ascetical, monastic and theological works went on to have a profound influence in the early Middle Ages. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the ancient world, with both English translations and the original Latin texts.

Saint Athanasius was a fourth century theologian and ecclesiastical statesman, who was the chief defender of Christian orthodoxy in the battle against Arianism — the heresy that the Son of God was a creature of like, but not of the same, substance as God the Father. He upheld that the Son of God, the eternal Word through whom God made the world, entered the world in human form to lead men back to the harmony from which they had fallen away. Later Church fathers in both the West and East highly regarded Athanasius’ writings, revering their devotion to the Word-become-man, pastoral concern and interest in monasticism. Today, Athanasius is considered one of the four great Eastern Doctors of the Catholic Church. This eBook presents Athanasius’ collected works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

The thirteenth century Italian Dominican friar, Thomas Aquinas was a philosopher, theologian and jurist in the tradition of scholasticism. His two masterpieces, the Summa Theologiae and Summa contra Gentiles, helped develop the classical systematisation of Latin theology, while as a poet he produced some of the finest eucharistic hymns in the church’s liturgy. The foremost classical proponent of natural theology, Thomas had an immense influence on Western thought, as much of modern philosophy developed or opposed his ideas, especially in areas of ethics, natural law, metaphysics and political theory.
