Tatian is a significant figure in the early Church, his work both representing and revealing his second century context This study offers a detailed exploration of his thought. It is also a valuable introduction to the entire period. 'Hunt's portrait succeeds in bringing to light Tatian's main ideas, and in showing him as a thinker in his own right.' - Dr. Thomas Graumann, Church Times 'I found this an interesting and stimulating contribution to a surprisingly under-studied subject.' - Journal of EcclesiasticalHistory 'Hunt's monograph is an important treatment of a neglected text and its author, and offers welcome light on a murky but important period in the development of Christianity.' - An International Journal for Theological & Religious Studies Students
