-------------------

The book "George Bull, Late Bishop of Menevens, All Works Written in Latin" is a collection of Latin writings by George Bull, a prominent Anglican theologian and bishop. The book contains a variety of theological and philosophical works, including sermons, essays, and treatises on topics such as the Trinity, the incarnation, and the authority of scripture. The collection includes his most famous work "Defensio Fidei Nicaenae" (Defense of the Nicene Creed), in which he defends the doctrine of the Trinity against the Arian heresy. His treatise on the Trinity, in particular, was influential in the development of Anglican theology. The collection of his Latin writings provides a valuable resource for scholars studying the history of theology and the Church of England during the 17th and 18th centuries. The writings reflect Bull's commitment to orthodox Christianity and his engagement with contemporary debates and controversies within the Church of England. The collection was first published in 1721, several years after Bull's death, and remains an important resource for scholars of Anglican theology and ecclesiastical history.
