Note

« The starting point of this attemps to reconstruct Porphyry’s Against the christians are the fragments collected by Adolf von Harnack. […] Additional fragments and testimonia are derived from sources ignored by Harnack, whose goal was to reconstruct the original edition of Porphyry’s Against the christians. Since in my view it is impossible, a more modest goal was set -to collect all data that directly or indirectly refers to Porphyry’s lost work. » (p. ix). —— Cet ouvrage a reçu un accueil plutôt défavorable.
