Intro

Western is those who wrote in Greek and Latin, and are known as such today, persons being familiar with, not a strict or technical categorization

Eastern Fathers: Syrian, Coptic & Arabic, many of whom were heretics

Ryle, Warnings to the Churches

“There are many who talk much in the present day about ‘the voice of the primitive Church.’ They would have us believe that those who lived nearest the time of the Apostles, must of course know more about truth than we can. There is no foundation for any such opinion. It is a fact, that the most ancient writers in the Church of Christ are often at variance with one another. It is a fact that they often changed their own minds, and retracted their own former opinions. It is a fact that they often wrote foolish and weak things, and often showed great ignorance in their explanations of Scripture. It is vain to expect to find them free from mistakes. Infallibility is not to be found in the early fathers, but in the Bible.”

‘The Fathers of the Church’  at NewAdvent.org (Romanist)

A large collection and easy to navigate.  Includes the standard works below and numerous others that are not below, though it does not have all the below works either.

‘Early Church Fathers – Additional Texts’  by Roger Pearse at Tertullian.org

This is a massive collection of texts in chronological order that intends to be comprehensive of all the early Christian literature which is in the public domain and is not in the older, standard 38 vol. set of Fathers by Roberts, Donaldson and Schaff.  The collection goes up to A.D. 1171.  The texts can be copy and pasted.  Some introductions are included to the works.

As this collection does not include copyrighted works, so it does not include many of the works below.  It does include much Syriac, Coptic and heterodox literature.  See also the Intro to the whole collection.

‘Ancient’ & ‘Medieval’  at Post-Reformation Digital Library

EarlyChristianWritings.com

The site purposes to provide all of the Christian writings that are believed to have been written in the first and second centuries, as well as a few selected from the early third.  It includes a lot of apocryphal and heretical material as well as Fathers.  Most of the writings are hosted onsite in an HTML-text format.

For more New Testament apocryphal and pseudepigraphic literature, see ‘Read the New Testament Apocryphal Books’ on our webpage, ‘On the Apocrypha & Pseudepigrapha’.

The Ante-Nicene, Nicene & Post-Nicene Fathers  eds. Roberts, Donaldson & Schaff  38 vols.  up to 800 A.D.

Intro

This set is the standard older edition of the Fathers in English.  Valuable Introductions and footnotes to most of the works are provided.  While this edition is great for getting into the Fathers, yet to have full critical editions with comprehensive, up-to-date contextual introductions is still a desideratum for every work in this set, which is attempting to be provided by various contemporary publishers in printing stand alone works of each of the Fathers.

Also, note that these volumes do not necessarily include all of the works of the particular authors that they treat: hence, the further need for the supplemental volumes below on this webpage.

A Library of Fathers of the Holy Catholic Church: Anterior to the Division of the East and West [1054]  48 vols.  ed. E.B. Pusey et al.  (London: John Henry Parker, Oxford)

Intro

Certain of the below works were not included in the 38 vols of The Ante-Nicene, Nicene & Post-Nicene Fathers above.  Such includes works of Cyril of Alexandria, Pacian (vol. 17) and letters of Ambrose (vol. 45).

The works, printed from 1838-1885, were translated by “members of the English Church” and used “all the best MSS. [manuscripts] known in Europe”.  The managing editor, E.B. Pusey (1800-1882) was a main, leading figure of the Oxford Movement, also known as Tractarianism.  This movement was ‘High-Church’ and shortly became Anglo-Catholic.
