Tatian's Address to the Greeks is a book written by Tatian, a second-century Christian apologist. The book is a defense of Christianity against the Greek philosophy and religion prevalent at the time. Tatian argues that Christianity is a superior and more rational belief system than the pagan religions of Greece. He also critiques Greek philosophy, particularly the works of Plato and Aristotle, arguing that they are flawed and inconsistent. Tatian's Address to the Greeks is an important historical document that provides insight into the early Christian church's relationship with Greek culture and philosophy. The book is written in a clear and persuasive style, making it accessible to both scholars and general readers interested in early Christianity and the history of philosophy.But further, it becomes us now to seek for what we once had, but have lost, to unite the soul with the Holy Spirit, and to strive after union with God. The human soul consists of many parts, and is not simple; it is composite, so as to manifest itself through the body; for neither could it ever appear by itself without the body, nor does the flesh rise again without the soul. Man is not, as the croaking philosophers say, merely a rational animal, capable of understanding and knowledge; for, according to them, even irrational creatures appear possessed of understanding and knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
