The study of 'Arianism' has proved one of the abiding fascinations and the abiding problems of early Christian studies in recent years. In this book Richard Vaggione addresses the definition of the doctrine and why it generated such intense social turmoil by examining the standpoint of one of 'Arianism's' principal supporters, Eunomius of Cyzicus. Eunomius' life is used as a framework within which to discuss changes in the doctrine of the Trinity. His origins, personal history, education, theology, and works are discussed in detail, as well as his unique philosophy of language. Dr Vaggione examines the relationship of Eunomius and his movement to the non-Nicene movement, and considers the meaning of the liturgical and other changes he made. He also traces the fortunes of the Eunomian following are traced through its final disappearance in the sixth or seventh century.
One of the principal themes of the book is the nature of doctrinal change, especially the contribution of ordinary people, including those of women and ascetics. Richard Vaggione argues that the process of doctrinal change is not exclusively the task of the religious 'professional' but of the Christian community as a whole, involving a prolonged dialogue between nave and pulpit leading finally to a new doctrinal and devotional synthesis.

Full and fascinating ... Vaggione's study is to be welcomed. The Expository Times
Dr Vaggione's book is the first to provide a full survey of the issues, doctrinal and church-political, involved in the rise and fall of Anomean theology and of its relation to the Nicene settlement ... Dr Vaggione has read his sources with great subtlety and uses what you might think meagre materials to considerable effect. (ADAMANTIUS (Journal of the Italian Research Group on "Origen and the Alexandrian Tradition")
A distinguished and most learned study. (Journal of Ecclesiastical History)

Richard Vaggione argues that the process of doctrinal change is not exclusively the task of thereligious 'professional' but of the Christian community as a whole, involving a prolonged dialogue between nave and pulpit leading finally to a new doctrinal and devotional synthesis. The doctrine of the Trinity has been central to Christian faith since the fourth century. The author here looks at it from the point of view of one who vehemently rejected it. Richard Paul Vaggione uses Eunomius' life to examine how the whole Christian community helped determine how this often abused doctrine was - and is - understood.
