|  | A History of the Holy Eastern Church: The Patriarchate of Alexandria by John Neale
The first volume of an ambitious project to document the history of the early church, this is one of John Mason Neale’s crowning achievements. Meticulously researched, Neale’s treatment of the early church in Egypt is among the required reading of any student of oriental Christianity still today. Beginning with the traditions of St. Mark’s foundation of the Egyptian church, the developments of Christianity are traced up through the controversies associated with Nestorius and the Council of Chalcedon. In Neale’s characteristically readable style, the early stages of Eastern Christianity and its noteworthy figures are presented here with historical accuracy and authority. The origins of monasticism, the troubles and triumphs of St. Athanasius, the Arian heresy, and the ecumenical councils are all treated in this important study of the church in Egypt. |

This presentation of several Eastern liturgies in English contains important information for the devotee of historic Christian liturgies. Originally written to inspire sympathy for their Eastern Christian compatriots among the membership of the Church of England, Howard’s study, already démodé as it was going to press, has become a touchstone for those seeking a sense of antique Christian liturgical practice. After providing a history of the “St. Thomas Christians,” the Orthodox Christians of India, up until the mid-nineteenth century, Howard presents English translations of six different anaphorae in use in Christendom: namely, those of St. James, St. Peter, The Twelve Apostles, Mar Dionysius Barsalibi, Mar Xystus, and Mar Evannis. Also included are the Ordo Communis, the order of the communion service which is essentially common to all of the traditions cited, the Gospels appointed for special occasions, seals and sedras. Despite its age, this resource still offers fruitful ground for those studying the relatively unchanging nature of the anaphorae.
George Broadley Howard was a clergyman in the Church of England and served as Assistant Chaplain in the Diocese of Madras.
