Author Description

Excerpt from Some Account of the Council of Nicæa: In Connexion With the Life of Athanasius The history of the controversy has also been written by Mr Newman, in The Arians of the Fourth Century. The reader will find occasional references to the work, as well as to the author's notes in the Oxford translation of the treatises of Athanasius. No one can read them without ad miring the extensive reading and the subtlety of the writer, nor without feeling a conviction that he was, when he wrote them, contemplating the step which he afterwards took, - that of secession to Rome.
