Excerpt from Early Christian Ethics in the West: From Clement to AmbroseIT is the object of this treatise to give some account of the history of Christian Ethics in the West from the close of the Apostolic Age to the death of Ambrose in the year 397 a.d. That period of three hundred years presents many fascinating problems to the student of Christian thought, but there is none Of them which is at once so fruitful and so little exhausted, as the first presentation and development of Christian ethical re ¿ection after its liberation from apostolic guidance, and on gracco-roman soil. In spite of the importance Of the subject, and the many learned and successful attempts to deal with different aspects Of this many sided question, it has not yet been worked With the same fulness and thoroughness as the closely-related field of Christian doctrine.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
