a site which:

  • Is like an Electronic Encyclopedia of the first five centuries of Church History, with extensive links to information on around 800 people and themes, and around 230 Church Councils.
     

  • Gives easy access to complete Greek and Latin texts which are in the public domain and translations (where found available) from the first five centuries. There are carefully indexed links to authors and their works, including an index of commentaries, homilies etc. by biblical book. Nearly all of the Greek and Latin texts from this period contained in the Migne Patrologia series are covered. Some other sources are also used. The texts used are the scanned versions available at Google Books and elsewhere. A distinctive feature of the Early Church Texts website is that where English translations have been found available online they can easily be read immediately alongside the original Greek and Latin. (A complete list of authors represented is here. A sample text is here.)
     

  • Is like a Reader in Early Christian History and Theology with 250+, with over 2,200 printable pages, carefully prepared on-site texts (original language with English translation alongside) from the first five centuries of the life of the Church. These texts are mainly extracts and cover a range of significant themes and represent several authors. All have dictionary lookup links. (A sample text is here and a complete list of on-site texts here).
     

  • Has an introduction to each on-site text (to help in understanding its context and significance) together with background notes linked with the text, carefully prepared printable versions, a site search engine and many other helpful features.
     

  • Has new features and resources regularly added to the site.
