Marcellus of Ancyra and the Lost Years of the Arian Controversy 325-345

The Arian Controversy, the struggle after the conversion of Constantine over the agreed content of the Christian faith, remains one of the most central debates in the whole of Church history. This book sheds new light on the often neglected years immediately after the ground-breaking Council of Nicaea in 325, showing how the parties which would contest the Nicene Creed for most of the century came to be established.
