Liturgical Press has drastically reduced the prices of some good patristic titles.
Enrico Mazza’s Mystagogy: A Theology of Liturgy in the Patristic Age is now $3.63 (down from $14.50).
Joseph T. Lienhard’s anthology on holy orders in the patristic era, Ministry, is now $2.99 (down from $11.95).
Thomas Halton’s anthology of patristic texts on The Church is now $3.74 (don’t know the original price).
Kilian McDonnell’s Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan: The Trinitarian and Cosmic Order of Salvation is now $6.24 (down from $24.95).
Hey, thanks. I’d wanted to peruse Mazza’s book since discovering it my reading on Luke 24 last year. Now I will…
I picked up an old battered copy of Halton’s book at a used book sale. The original book store sticker was still on it. It sold for 12.95$. In it the patristic texts are related to the teaching of Vatican II’s document Lumen Gentium.
Mike,
Are you familiar with *Doctors Of The Church: Thirty-Three Men and Women Who Shaped Christianity* by Bernard McGinn (Crossroads Publishing, 1999)?
I picked this up at a university library the other night. Looks like a good succinct intro to the Doctors.
By the way, nice blog as well.
