Description
Written in the fourth century A.D., the Panarion of St. Epiphanius is by far the most extensive ancient account of heresies in the early church and the major source for a considerable number of heterodox documents and traditions. Amidon here makes this important patristic document readily accessible to students and scholars, providing translations of selected passages, including precious documents of Gnosticism and Semi-Arianism excerpted and preserved by Epiphanius and first-hand accounts of his encounters with sects and notable figures of his time.
