About Athanasius of Alexandria
Athanasius of Alexandria, also known as Saint Athanasius, was a prominent Christian theologian and bishop of Alexandria in the 4th century. He played a key role in defining the doctrine of the Trinity and opposing the teachings of Arianism, which questioned the divinity of Christ. Athanasius was exiled multiple times for his beliefs but remained steadfast in defending orthodox Christianity. His writings, particularly his 'On the Incarnation,' continue to be influential in Christian theology and doctrine.
