Double-weighted statement

The output involved the study of a very extensive body of primary material – the Acts themselves, other documents included in the edition (a translation of almost 200,000 words), and a large related body of ancient texts (see the bibliography). The material is complex, as the Acts contain substantial citations of earlier texts, whose selection and manipulation required study, and constitute a reinterpretation of the Acts of Chalcedon of 451, making an analysis of the latter necessary. Much original research was required: only two books of value have been devoted to the Council, and both leave most of the problems unaddressed.
