Description
Book SynopsisA translation of one of Maximus the Confessor's (580-662) significant contributions to early Christian biblical interpretation. It is suitable for readers interested in Maximus and, more broadly, to scholars and students of early Christianity, early Byzantine monasticism, and patristic biblical exegesis.
Trade ReviewIt is the first English translation of the text and is, therefore, a welcome addition to the literature on Maximus. Prassas has rendered us a great service by striving so vigorously with Maximus's difficult Greek. The collection of Quaestiones et Dubia itself is an excellent text for beginning a study of Maximus. Prassas' work is, therefore, definitely to be recommended.
