Publisher's Synopsis
""Alexandrian and Carthaginian Theology Contrasted"" is a book written by John Bickford Heard and originally published in 1893. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the contrasting theological traditions of Alexandria and Carthage, two major centers of Christian thought in the early centuries of the Church. Heard examines the key theological concepts and debates of each tradition, including the nature of Christ, the role of the Holy Spirit, and the relationship between faith and reason. He also explores the historical and cultural contexts that shaped these traditions, including the influence of Hellenistic philosophy on Alexandrian theology and the impact of the Donatist controversy on Carthaginian theology. With its detailed analysis and insightful commentary, ""Alexandrian and Carthaginian Theology Contrasted"" remains a valuable resource for scholars and students of early Christian theology and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
