Why this is in the register

HOLLIS Primo (2026-11-14) returns only Latin editions and manuscripts of this work, within Migne PL 121 and the early printed corpora; the English-language Ratramnus records are all versions of the Book of Bertram (De corpore et sanguine), which was Englished in 1549, 1623, 1686, 1689 and 1753, plus 'The Law of the Eucharist' (2021), a modern study. The contrast is instructive: the eucharistic treatise has five early modern English versions, while the four books against the Greeks have none. No English translation was located.

Four books answering Photius and the Greek objections to Latin teaching on the filioque, the papacy, leavened bread and fasting, one of the earliest sustained Western treatments of the Latin-Greek dispute. In English the whole ninth-century East-West argument is therefore visible only through later medieval and modern summaries.
