Comments on: Athanasius https://www.fourthcentury.com "What did the Fathers do except seek and present the clear and open testimonies of Scripture?" -- Martin Luther, Against Latomus (1521) Fri, 07 Feb 2025 20:23:42 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Kevin https://www.fourthcentury.com/athanasius-chart/comment-page-1/#comment-2156 Tue, 10 Feb 2009 17:30:57 +0000 http://www.fourthcentury.com/?page_id=542#comment-2156 RE: De Sententia Dionysii:

As the authors of the chart have noted, the dating of De sententia Dionysii is a matter of scholarly debate, but it seems likely that it was written in either 354 (Barnes) or 359/360 (Heil). On these dates see Uta Heil’s Athanasius Von Alexandrien: De Sententia Dionysii (Berlin, 1999), pp 22-35 and Barnes review of Heil’s work, which appears in The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Volume 51, Issue 03, July 2000, pp 597-598.

Cheers,

Thank you for putting it together. In regards to the dating of Contra Gentes – De Incarnatione, you may wish to also refer to Khaled Anatolios’ excellent discussion in Athanasius: The Coherence of his Thought (pp. 26-30). Anatolios proposes Athanasius wrote this treatise sometime between 328 and 335 (pp.29).
