The First Book of the Irenicum

Excerpt from The First Book of the Irenicum: A Contribution to the Theology of Re-Union; Translated and Edited With Introduction Notes and Appendices. In making the translation I have endeavoured to be as faithful to the original Latin as possible and also to follow Forbes''s rule of verifying all references though in a few cases I have been bafed. For convenience sake I have substituted references to Migne where those which Forbes gives are to editions now out of date.. I may add that the translation and analysis of the Second Book of the Irenicum were completed with those of the First some three years ago: but I cannot under existing circum stances finish the work for publication. I only hope that this volume may stimulate others to continue the present study.. About the Publisher. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
