Present at the Council of Nicea, which produced the famous creed declaring Christ truly divine, Athanasius (297-373) proved to be an enormous influence on the teaching that "the Word was made flesh".... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Pettersen wrote a good and ssytematic survey of Athanasius' theology and the book will provide excellent services to those seeking introductory information beyond that delivered by encyclopedia's. He also gives large and representative portions of the text of Athanasius' main writings in English translation. I would have loved however a bit more attention for Athanasius' other writings, e.g. his ascetic writings.
