Is it true, as has often been claimed in recent years, that there
was no real controversy in the period immediately following the
Council of Nicaea? Sara Parvis, in this lively and meticulous
study, argues not. She shows that the two opposing parties which
had formed in support of Alexander of Alexandria and Arius in the
years before Nicaea continued their activities afterwards,
targeting one another with ruthless zeal at a series of synods
which may look neutral but are revealed to be demonstrably
partisan. Only the deaths of all the original party leaders except
Marcellus of Ancyra, and the rise of Athanasius, broke the impasse
which followed and allowed new political and theological
configurations to form.
