Book The Acts of the Council of Constantinople Of 869 70

Download or read book The Acts of the Council of Constantinople Of 869 70 written by Richard Price and published by . This book was released on 2022-04 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Council of Constantinople of 869-70 was highly dramatic, with its trial and condemnation of Patriarch Photius, a towering figure in the Byzantium of his day, and the tussle of wills at the council between the papal legates, the imperial representatives and the bishops. It was church politics and personalities rather than issues of doctrine, such as icon veneration, that dominated the debates. Out of all the acts of the great early councils, the acts of this council, of which this edition is the first modern translation, are the nearest to an accurate and complete record. Its protest against secular interference in ecclesiastical elections was taken up later in the West and led to this council's being accorded full ecumenical status, although it had been repudiated in Byzantium soon after it was held. No early council expresses so vividly the tension between Rome's claim to supreme authority and the Byzantine reduction of this to a primacy of honour.

Book excerpt: In 451 CE the Council of Chalcedon was called to assert the preeminence of orthodox Catholic doctrine against the heresy of men who refused what we now refer to as the Definition of Faith, or the belief in Jesus Christ as both man and divine spirit during his lifetime.

Book The Acts of the Council of Constantinople of 553

Download or read book The Acts of the Council of Constantinople of 553 written by Richard Price and published by Translated Texts for Historian. This book was released on 2012 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because it condemned two of the greatest biblical scholars and commentators of the patristic era, the Council of Constantinople of 553 has long been considered the most controversial of the ecumenical councils. The council and its organizer, the Byzantine emperor Justinian, used brutality toward their opponents and the falsification of documents in order to pass decrees. However, this translation of the Council's Acts by Richard Price reveals that the theology of the council was both opportune and constructive and its contributions to Christian unity were well-intentioned and not wholly unsuccessful. In his commentary, Price thoughtfully reevaluates material neglected by historians of the period.

Book Catholic Council of Fourth Constantinople

Download or read book Catholic Council of Fourth Constantinople written by Basil I, Eastern Roman Emperor and published by Dalcassian Publishing Company. This book was released on 2006-12-15 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fourth Council of Constantinople is the eighth ecumenical council of the Catholic Church, held in the city of Constantinople from 869 to 870. The council was called by Emperor Basil I the Macedonian, with the support of Pope Hadrian II. It deposed and anathemized Photius, a layman who had been appointed as Patriarch of Constantinople, and reinstated his predecessor Ignatius. The Council also reaffirmed the decisions of the Second Council of Nicaea in support of icons and holy images and required the image of Christ to have veneration equal with that of the gospel book. It is commonly confused with the Fourth Council of Constantinople held by the Eastern Orthodox Church, which would take place in the subsequent decade.

Book The Acts of the Council of Constantinople of 553  Sessions VI  VIII  Vigilius Constituta  Appendices  Maps  Glossary  Bibliography  Indices

Download or read book The Acts of the Council of Constantinople of 553 Sessions VI VIII Vigilius Constituta Appendices Maps Glossary Bibliography Indices written by Richard Price and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Council of Constantinople of 553 (often called Constantinople II or the Fifth Ecumenical Council) has been described as 'by far the most problematic of all the councils', because it condemned two of the greatest biblical scholars and commentators of the patristic era Origen and Theodore of Mopsuestia and because the pope of the day, Vigilius, first condemned the council and then confirmed its decisions only under duress. The present edition makes accessible to the modern reader the acts of the council, session by session, and the most important related documents, particularly those that reveal the shifting stance of Pope Vigilius, veering between heroic resistance and abject compliance. The accompanying commentary and substantial introduction provide a background narrative of developments since Chalcedon, a full analysis of the policy of the emperor Justinian (who summoned and dominated the council) and of the issues in the debate, and information on the complex history of both the text and the council's reception. The editor argues that the work of the council deserves a more sympathetic evaluation that it has generally received in western Christendom, since it arguably clarified rather than distorted the message of Chalcedon and influenced the whole subsequent tradition of eastern Orthodoxy. In interpreting Chalcedon the conciliar acts provide a fascinating example of how a society in this case the imperial Church of Byzantium determines its identity by how it understands its past. -- Amazon.com.
