Nestoriana, die Fragmanete des Nestorius [German]

By Nestorius and Friedrich Loofs

Book Overview

Nestoriana, die Fragmente des Nestorius, published in 1905, presents a collection of fragments from the writings of Nestorius, the controversial 5th-century Patriarch of Constantinople. This compilation, edited by Friedrich Loofs, Georg Kampffmeyer, and Stanley Arthur Cook, offers invaluable insights into the theological debates surrounding Nestorius's teachings, particularly concerning Christology. Nestorius's views, which emphasized the distinctness of Christ's human and divine natures, were deemed heretical by the Council of Ephesus in 431 AD, leading to his deposition and exile.

This volume preserves vital source material for understanding Nestorianism and its historical context. The fragments shed light on Nestorius's own defense of his doctrines, his interpretations of scripture, and his interactions with contemporary theologians and political figures. For scholars of church history, patristics, and the history of Christian doctrine, "Nestoriana" remains an indispensable resource for engaging with a pivotal moment in the development of Christian thought.
