Synopsis
Excerpt from Donatism
The Donatists had great men as their opponents. St. Optatus was Catholic Bishop of Milene 42 in Numidia. Here, surrounded by the schismatical majority, he wrote his seven books against Parmenian, their Primate, about the year his one work, but enough to give him a title to fame. In it he traces the story of the schism, and argues against it. About twenty years later a still greater champion appears. St. Augustine was priest at Hippo Regius, in Numidia, from 391, Bishop of that city from 396. He, too, found himself surrounded with Donatists; though he notes in his later works that their number has greatly diminished. A Catholic bishop in a schismatical land, Augustine devoted a great part of his later life to refuting the schism. He and Optatus are the anti Donatist Fathers.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the Donatist schism in early Christianity, exploring its origins, development, and significance. The author draws from the writings of St. Augustine and Optatus, leading figures in the anti-Donatist movement, to shed light on the Donatist claims to be the true Church and their practice of rebaptism. The book examines the theological and ecclesiastical arguments presented by both sides, offering valuable insights into the complexities of the schism and its impact on the unity of the Church. Through this exploration, the author not only provides a historical account of the Donatist controversy but also draws parallels to contemporary debates on the nature and boundaries of the Church, making this book relevant and engaging for readers interested in the history of Christianity and the ongoing discussions on ecclesiology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
