"On First Principles by Origen of Alexandria, written around 220-230 AD, is one of the most important and contentious works of early Christianity. It caused controversy when written, provoked further uproar when translated into Latin by Rufinus at the end of the fourth century, and, together with its author, was condemned in the sixth century. As a result, the work no longer survives intact in the original Greek. We only have the complete work in the Latin translation of Rufinus, and a few extensive passages preserved in Greek by being excerpted into the Philokalia of Basil of Caesarea and Gregory of Nazianzus. This Reader's Edition provides a new translation of one of the most important texts from early Christianity. Leading scholar, John Behr includes an invaluable introduction, which provides a clear structure of the work with significant implications for how the text is to be read and for understanding the character of theology in the early Christian tradition"--Provided by publisher.
