He himself, as I understand it, is quite committed to 'Nestorian' Christology and sometimes publishes through a Russian-language Assyrian press. His article "Nestorius of Constantinople: Condemnation, Suppression, Veneration, With special reference to the role of his name in East-Syriac Christianity" (Journal of Eastern Christian Studies 62:3-4 (2010), pp. 165-190) provides an essential counterpoint to Brock's famous "Unfortunate Misnomer" article. <br /><br />As is typical with Russian academia, all his publications can be downloaded from his university website: http://east-west.rsuh.ru/article.html?id=67105<br /><br />They include:<br />Несторий и Церковь Востока / РГГУ, Центр изучения религий. М.: Путь, 2005 (Nestorius and the Church of the East)<br /><br />Христология Ассирийской Церкви Востока: анализ основных материалов в контексте истории формирования вероучения. М.: Euroasiatica, 2002<br />(The Christology of the Assyrian Church of the East: An Analysis of the Basic Material in the Context of the Formation of Doctrine)<br /><br />Ассирийская Церковь Востока. Исторический очерк. М.: АЦВ, 2001 (The Assyrian Church of the East: An Historical Essay)Samn!https://www.blogger.com/profile/14142811721903345946noreply@blogger.com
