Overview

Fourth-century theologian and Greek bishop Basil of Caesarea supported the Nicene Creed and fought against the heresies that threatened the early church. As one of the Cappadocian Fathers, he advanced early Christian thought and helped establish important doctrines. Dedicated to monasticism, he emphasized communal living, serving the poor, and liturgical prayer. He also engaged with prominent Greek intellectuals and functioned powerfully in the political spheres of Asia Minor. For this and more he is revered as Saint Basil the Great.

This wide-ranging collection includes 17 volumes of works written by or about Saint Basil, including examinations of other philosophers and theologians who influenced his work.

In the Logos edition, these works are enhanced by amazing functionality.
