Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Popular Patristics Series Volume 49 An otherwise unknown
second-century Christian, Ignatius was taken from Antioch to Rome
in an imperial triumph, to be executed in the arena. He saw this
triumphal procession as Christ's, as he went to a conquering death.
As Christ's death brought about reconciliation between Jew and
Gentile, Ignatius hoped that his death, united with Christ's, would
bring about reconciliation within and among the churches to which
he wrote. Two centuries later, when the Arian controversy further
divided the Antiochene church, an unknown writer took on the
persona of Ignatius to appeal for peace. As today the church is
more than ever divided, Fr Stewart presents a fresh English version
of both Ignatius and his imitator, with the Greek of Ignatius, and
concise introductions to the letters. The most recent research on
Ignatius is accessibly presented, and the first English version of
the imitation Ignatius is here made available to students, to
clergy, and to the people of God.
