Defining Orthodoxy in Hilary of Poitiers' Commentarium in Matthaeum

Journal of Early Christian Studies, 2001
Despite the fact that Hilary had not yet heard of the Nicene creed before going into exile (356), most scholars have argued that the bishop did possess an awareness of the "Arian" disputes in the West.

Metrical Problems in the First Arezzo Hymn of Hilary of Poitiers

Traditio, 1963
The scanty remains of Hilary's Liber lujmnorumr, represented by the three hymns which have come down to us in the Arezzo manuscript. provide us with our earliest glimpse into Latin hymnody.

The Soteriology of Hilary of Poitiers: a latin mystical model of redemption

Augustinianum, 2012
