This volume is a collection of 13 essays offered in dedication to Professor C.G. Stead on his 80th birthday. Their theme is the philosophy underlying the presentation of Christian teaching in Late Antiquity. The essays deal with individual theologians, Augustine, Ambrose, Dionysius the Areopagite, Gregory of Nyssa, with theological background, Christian and Roman universalism, and with the discussion of particular texts. A bibliography and brief appreciation of Professor Stead's contribution to Patristic studies are included.
