Overview

Part one of this massive collection of resources provides you with both the historical and doctrinal background necessary to better understand the Orthodox Christian Church, or what F. G. Cole called “The Mother of All Churches.” Covering everything from a detailed, historical account of the church from the days of the apostles until the nineteenth century, to a number of lectures and treatises on the Orthodox Church and her interaction with other Christian communions, this set is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in the East, as well as how the Orthodox Church has had an influence on the Christianity of the West.

Part two of the Select Works on Orthodox History collection delves deeply into the history of various local Orthodox churches, including those of Cyprus, Egypt, Serbia, and Constantinople, while also covering the churches of Eastern Europe and the Oriental, Armenian, and Assyrian communions. This set is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of the Orthodox Church.
