The dyophysite christology of Cyril of Alexandria

Hans van Loon (Author)
Based on a systematic investigation of Cyril of Alexandria’s christological writings, this book claims that his christology is basically dyophysite, and that the formula ‘one incarnate nature of the Word of God’ is of minor importance to him.
