Synopsis
Is there a papal supremacy in early church history? This probing study argues there isn’t in the way later tradition claimed.
The Testimony of Saint Cyprian Against Rome examines the ideas of Saint Cyprian on church unity, episcopal authority, and the relationship between Rome and other sees. Written as an closely argued essay, it weighs Cyprian’s writings to determine what he believed about Peter, Rome, and the governance of the church.
Drawing on Cyprian’s own letters and tractates, the author shows how Cyprian viewed episcopal authority as rooted in God’s design and the church’s collective voice, not in papal supremacy. The work traces the transmission of ideas about Rome’s role, the primacy of Peter, and Cyprian’s stance on church discipline and unity. It also situates Cyprian within early Christian debates about authority and governance.- Clear, cited analysis of Cyprian’s writings and their implications for Peter’s primacy
- Careful discussion of how Cyprian viewed the role of Rome in church governance
- Context for readers interested in early church history and papal claims
- A historical argument that highlights differences between Cyprian’s views and later papal doctrine
Ideal for readers of church history, theology, and archival studies curious about the roots of ecclesiastical authority.
