Abstract

Timothy Pawl, In Defence of Conciliar Christology: A Philosophical Essay, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2016. Pages: xv and 251. ISBN: 978-0-19-876592-9.


Does the Christology of the first seven ecumenical councils (Nicea I in 325 to Nicea II in 787) stand up to philosophical analysis? Pawl is not concerned with the truth of their Christological teaching but rather with philosophical objections to this teaching — a neat but difficult distinction.
