Person
Hippolytus
early third century
Roman theologian and rigorist; the corpus may be more than one author
Disputed. A Roman Hippolytus is historical. The one-author corpus is not safe to assume.
A statue and a set of writings, including a Refutation of all heresies and a commentary on Daniel, have been assigned to one Hippolytus of Rome. Many scholars now think the Refutation and the liturgical Apostolic Tradition may not share a single author. He, or they, represent a learned and strict strand that clashed with bishop Callistus.
