St Peter Chrysologus: Selected Sermons Volume 2 (Fathers of the Church)

Peter Chrysologus was appointed bishop of Ravenna in 426, a time that coincided with Ravenna's elevation to metropolitan status. This book presents annotated English translations of over fifty sermons by Chrysologus which not only throw light on the bishop's theology and interpretation of specific Gospel texts, but also provide valuable information about life in Ravenna and Italy during the second quarter of the 5th century, as well as church politics and the barbarian threat. Includes a background introductory discussion.
