Enchantment and Creed in the Hymns of Ambrose of Milan - Oxford Early Christian Studies
Dunkle, SJ, Brian P. (Assistant Professor of Historical Theology, Boston College School of Theology and Ministry)
This work offers a critical overview of the hymns of Ambrose of Milan (c.339-397) in the context of fourth-century doctrinal hymns and in relation to his own catechetical preaching. Brian P. Dunkle, SJ, argues that Ambrose employed sophisticated poetic techniques in his hymns in order to foster a pro-Nicene sensitivity in his congregation.
