More about the book
A pivotal figure in early Christian theology, Maximus the Confessor transitioned from a civil servant to a monk, deeply engaging with various philosophical traditions. His commitment to the Chalcedonian formula led him to oppose Monothelitism, advocating for the belief in Christ's dual wills. His theological stance resulted in persecution, including mutilation and exile, yet he remained influential, with his teachings later affirmed by the Third Council of Constantinople. Venerated as a saint in both Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic traditions, his legacy endures in Christian thought.
