Bingham's Christian Antiquities (rep. 1855) gives abundant details; but see also Smith's Dictionary of Christian Antiquities. Mosheim traces the development century by century. § 6. Strifes over Primary Dogma These may be followed in brief in Mosheim, or at length in Harnack's History of Dogma, or in Hagenbach's earlier manual, which is more concise. Hatch's Influence of Greek Ideas is light-giving at some points; and Dr. Albert Réville's Histoire du dogme de la divinité de Jésus Christ (2e édit. 1876) is a good conspectus of its subject. For a briefer general view see Stoughton's Ages of the Church, Lect. v and vii. The history of the so-called Apostles' Creed is fully discussed by M. Nicolas, Le Symbole des Apôtres, 1867, and in Harnack's work on the same subject (Eng. tr. 1901). Chapter II--Relations of Church and State § 1. Persecutions Consult Gibbon, ch. xvi; Niebuhr, Lectures on Roman History, Eng. tr. Lect. cxli; and Boissier, La Fin du Paganisme (2e édit. 1894), tom. i, Appendice, for critical views, as distinguished from those of the ecclesiastical historians. Compare also Milman's account in the first chapter of his History of Latin Christianity. The alleged Neronian persecution is specially sifted by Hochart, Études au sujet de la persécution des Chrétiens sous Néron, 1885. For a complete record of the cult of the emperors see Le Culte Impérial, son histoire et son organisation, par l'Abbé E. Beurlier, 1891. §§ 2, 3, 4. Establishment and Creed-Making; Reaction under Julian; Re-establishment; Disestablishment of Paganism.
