Marriage, Celibacy, and Heresy in Ancient Christianity is the first
major study in English of the 'heretic' Jovinian and the
Jovinianist controversy. David G. Hunter examines early Christian
views on marriage and celibacy in the first three centuries and the
development of an anti-heretical tradition. He provides a thorough
analysis of the responses of Jovinian's main opponents, including
Pope Siricius, Ambrose, Jerome, Pelagius, and Augustine. In the
course of his discussion Hunter sheds new light on the origins of
Christian asceticism, the rise of clerical celibacy, the
development of Marian doctrine, and the formation of 'orthodoxy'
and 'heresy' in early Christianity.
