The statements concerning the origin and age of the Athanasian Creed should be conformed
to the authors views as expressed in his work on Creeds, i. 36. The latest investigations do not
warrant us to trace it higher than the eighth or seventh century. The first commentary on it
ascribed to Venantius Fortunatus, 570, is of doubtful genuineness, and denied to him by Gieseler,
Ffoulkes, and others. The majority of recent Anglican writers, including Stanley, Swainson, and
Lumby, assign the Creed to an unknown author in Gaul between A.D. 750 and 850, probably
during the reign of Charlemagne (d. 814). Hardy and Ommaney plead for an earlier date. The
question is not yet fully settled. The Creed consists of two parts, one on the Trinity and one on
the Incarnation, which were afterward welded together by a third hand. The second part was
found separately as a fragment of a sermon on the Incarnation, at Treves, in a MS. from the
middle of the eighth century, and was first published by Prof. Swainson, 1871, and again in
1875.
