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.

The English reader has now, in the first three volumes of this
Library, a complete collection of the historical writings of the
Fathers, whose permanent value, as sources, is universally
acknowledged. Several of them have never before appeared in
English. The unavoidable delay in the publication of the third
volume has been very annoying to the general editors and
publishers, but the subscribers will be amply compensated by the
addition of the writings of Rufinus, which were not promised in the
prospectus. It is encouraging that this difficult and costly
enterprise is beginning to be duly appreciated by competent judges
on both sides of the Atlantic.
"The Council of Nicaea in 325 AD marked the beginning of a new era
in Christianity. For the first time, doctrines were organized into
a single creed. The Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers did most of
their writing during and after this important event in Church
history. Unlike the previous era of Christian writing, the Nicene
and Post-Nicene era is dominated by a few very important and
prolific writers. In Volume VII of the 14-volume collected writings
of the Nicenes and Post-Nicenes (first published between 1886 and
1889), readers will discover Saint Augustines commentaries on the
writings of John and his first writings as a newly converted
Christian. In the Soliloquies, Augustine reasons through his
conversion, trying to justify his new faith; these are intensely
personal journeys toward truth, the product of a thoughtful soul
seeking comfort and reassurance. Spiritual seekers wavering in
their faith may find both sections of this book helpful in
exploring their beliefs."
