Works
Maxentius is also the author of
- two dialogues against the Nestorians
- twelve anathematisms against the Nestorians
- a treatise against the Acephali (Monophysites).
The "Professio de Christo", printed as a separate work, is but a part of the "Epistola ad legatos sedis apostolicae".
His works, originally written in Latin, were preserved in a rather unsatisfactory condition. They were first published by Cochlaeus.

Famous quotes containing the word works:
“We do not fear censorship for we have no wish to offend with improprieties or obscenities, but we do demand, as a right, the liberty to show the dark side of wrong, that we may illuminate the bright side of virtue—the same liberty that is conceded to the art of the written word, that art to which we owe the Bible and the works of Shakespeare.”
—D.W. (David Wark)
“Now they express
All that’s content to wear a worn-out coat,
All actions done in patient hopelessness,
All that ignores the silences of death,
Thinking no further than the hand can hold,
All that grows old,
Yet works on uselessly with shortened breath.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
