Nestorius (in Greek Νεστόριος; c. 386–c. 451) was Archbishop of Constantinople from 10 April 428 to 22 June 431. Drawing on his studies at the School of Antioch he devised a doctrine that later bore his name, Nestorianism, which emphasized the disunity of the human and divine natures of Christ. His teachings, which included a rejection of the long-used title of Theotokos ("Mother of God") for the Virgin Mary, brought him into conflict with other prominent churchmen of the time, most notably Cyril of Alexandria, who accused him of heresy. Nestorius sought to defend himself at the First Council of Ephesus in 431, but instead he found himself formally condemned for heresy and removed from his see. Thereafter he retired to a monastery, where he asserted his orthodoxy for the rest of his life. Despite his acquiescence, many of his supporters split with the rest of the church in the Nestorian Schism, and over the next decades a number of them relocated to Persia. Thereafter Nestorianism became the official position of the Church of the East.
Nestorius The Bazaar of Heracleides edition by Nestorius Religion Spirituality eBooks
I really liked this book. It sheds light on some of the questionable tactics used by the Bishop of Alexandria, ST. Cyril to enforce his idea of the nature of Christ. When you read what St. Cyril did at the ecumenical conference, you realize that modern polititians have nothing to compare with the violent tatics used by St. Cyril. I would go so far as to say that the orthodox interpretation of the nature of Christ is incorrect.The book is somewhat hard to read in that the translator does not translate 2 Greek words that I think mean nature and person. It is also somewhat confusing because Nestorius is trying to defend himself and expound his doctrine at the same time.
You should definatetly read this book if you wnat to know what Nestorian Christiantity is all about.
