Includes bibliographical references and index.

Formerly attributed to Justin Martyr; not cited by any ancient or medieval writer, existed in a single manuscript, lost in the siege of Strasburg (1870). The identification of Diognetus with the teacher of Marcus Aurelius, is, at most, plausible. Actual author's name and date is unknown; the letter breaks off at the end of chapter x; it may have originally been much longer. The last two chapters (xi, xii) bear no relation to the rest of the letterand seem to be a fragment of a homily of later dat.

Text in Greek, with introductory notes and commentary in English.
