CHAPTER III
FAITH AND LITURGIES BEFORE THE SCHISM
Each article of Faith will be found discussed in its place in dogmatic text-books. Leo Allatius: De Ecclesiæ occidentalis atque orientalis perpetua consensione libri tres (Köln, 1648, 4to) is an apology of the Catholic view. Allatius (1586–1669) was a Uniate, student, then professor at the Greek College at Rome, and finally Vatican librarian. The standard book for the texts of liturgies is F. Brightman: Liturgies Eastern and Western, vol. i. Eastern Liturgies (Oxford, Clar. Press, 1896). See also L. Duchesne: Origines du culte chrétien (op. cit.) and F. Probst: Liturgie der drei ersten christlichen Jahrhunderte (Tübingen, 1870), and Liturgie des vierten Jahrhunderts und deren Reform (Münster, 1893). E. Renaudot: Liturgiarum orientalium collectio (ed. ii, Frankfurt, 1847, 2 vols.) was the classical work till it was supplanted by Brightman. Prince Max of Saxony has published the lectures on Eastern rites that he held lately at Freiburg (Switzerland), in Latin (no place nor date). For other works on liturgy see chap, xiii below. J. Pargoire: L'Église Byzantine de 527 à 847 (Paris, Lecoffre, 1905) discusses all the questions of rites, morals, art, history, theology, &c., during that period. For general Byzantine History see—
