The Dyophysite Christology of Cyril of Alexandria by Hans van Loon:

My initial impressions after reading the introduction and skimming several sections of the work; it appears that van Loon unfortunately repeats the same 'Apollinarian forgeries' hypothesis as originally posited by Hans Lietzmann a century ago. Of course being Protestants Lietzmann and van Loon don't appreciate the significance of the supposed Apollinarian forgeries for the Third Ecumenical Council and the entire movement to combat Nestorianism (not surprising since many Protestants are Nestorians anyway).
