The Great Athanasius is an introductory survey of the life and work of the most dynamic pastor-theologian of the fourth century. From his birth and early years in Alexandria to the "e;Golden Decade,"e; the book charts the life and work of Athanasius through a close study of his main writings and other important works. Central to his story is the "e;Arian controversy,"e; the Council of Nicea, and the subsequent difficulties that emerged in building a consensus around the "e;very God, very Man"e; affirmation of the Nicene Creed. The eventual triumph of the theology of the Nicene Creed was largely due to his tireless efforts, which are carefully chronicled in this work. Though a controversial figure in his own lifetime, through both his theological insight and ecclesiastical leadership, and in his fidelity to his faith convictions, Athanasius proved to be "e;the great"e; church father and theologian of his age and one of the seminal Christian thinkers of all time.
