Codex 15: Gelasius of Cyzicus, Acts of the First Council—Nicaea

Read the Acts of the first council¹ in three volumes. It bears the name of Gelasius,² but is rather a history than an Acts. The author’s style is poor and mean, but he gives a detailed account of the proceedings of the council.

Notes

Of Nicaea (325).
Of Cyzicus, flourished about 475. Nothing more is known of him than what he states in the work itself, which is still extant.
