Dictionary Of Theologians To 1308 books, An exhaustive guide to every significant Christian theologian from the first century through to the death of John Duns Scotus in 1308, the Dictionary of Theologians is an invaluable window into the complex world of early and medieval Christian thought. The dictionary encompasses the Catholic, Orthodox, Nestorian and Monophysite traditions, including information not previously available in English. Thoroughly indexed, the dictionary includes common variants of names and concepts which will help and direct the reader. With over 290 entries, each provides an accessible summary of a theologians life and writings that reflect recent scholarship, as well as an up to date bibliography containing all primary and secondary texts and translations in the major western European languages published as of 2008. Useful for all levels of academia; no other text matches the depth of the dictionarys bibliographies. The unprecedented thoroughness of Hills compilation has provided an indispensable resource for even the most penetrating of studies on so large and varied a range of Church thinkers.
