Bertholdintroduction by Jaroslav Pelikanpreface by Irenee-Henri Dalmais, O.P."The perfect mind is the one that through genuine faith knows in supreme ignorance the supremely unknowable, and in gazing on the universe of his handiwork has received from God comprehensive knowledge of his Providence and judgment in it, as far as allowable to men."Maximus Confessor (c.580-662)Maximus is called the Confessor because of his sufferings and labors for the true faith.
