Council of Chalcedon (451 : Chalcedon)

Contents:

v. 1. General introduction; documents before the Council; Session I v. 2. Sessions II-X; Session on Carosus and Dorotheus; Session on Photius and Eustathius; Session on Domnus v. 3. Sessions XI-XVI; documents after the Council; appendices; glossary; bibliography; maps; indices.

Summary: The Council of Chalcedon in 451 was a defining moment in the Christological controversies that tore apart the churches of the Eastern Roman Empire in the fifth and sixth centuries. Theological division, political rivalry and sectarian violence combined to produce what ultimately became separate Chalcedonian and non-Chalcedonian churches, a schism that persists to this day. Whether seen as a milestone in the development of orthodox doctrine or as a divisive and misguided cause of schism, Chalcedon is chiefly remembered for its Definition of Faith, a classic expression of Christian belief in Chr.
