Description
Excerpt from Studies of Arianism: Chiefly Referring to the Character and Chronology of the Reaction Which Followed the Council of Nicæa
The present work is not so much a formal history of Arian ism as a review of the forces at work in the different stages of the controversy, traced out with special regard to the sequence of events and to their connexion with the social characteristics and political history of the Empire. Thus I have felt at liberty in most cases to omit detailed accounts of well-known scenes, and sometimes to leave out subjects of great importance. Anything indeed pretending to the character of a monograph would have been quite beyond my power in the fragments of time which have been at my disposal.
