Greetings all,
I am looking for book recommendations on Cyril of Alexandria.
I have read McGuckin's book which was spectacular story of Cyril's history during the Christological controversy that led to Ephesus II. I have just recently finished Norman Russell's book on Cyril. It had a strong start and was much broader in scope than McGuckin, but was disappointing in that more than 50% of book just incorporated Cyril's writing with no commentary (if you already have those, then it's just unnecessarily duplicative).
I would love to hear of any recommended books and perhaps a quick synopsis of content.
Cheers!
