Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gregory Nazianzen's Theological Orations, genuine classics, reveal not only the learning and faith of their author, but also his quarrels with Neo-Arians, Pneumatomachians, pagans, and other opponents at Constantinople in the late fourth century C.E. This volume is divided into three parts. The first offers a survey of Gregory's life and works, his orientation as a philosophical rhetorician, an overview of his theology, the relevant views of his major opponents, and the manuscript tradition of these orations. The second is a commentary that concentrates on the context and flow of his arguments about paideia and theology. The third is a new English translation, the first complete one, that evokes the logical and rhetorical power of Nazianzen and through its Biblical citations shows the importance of scripture in the debates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Five Theological Orations of Gregory of Nazianzus: Edited for the Syndics of the University Press It is possible, however, to come a little closer. The twenty-second and twenty-third Orations were certainly delivered at Constantinople about the middle of the year 379. At the end of the latter of those two Orations, Gregory promises to crush the serpent eggs of heresy by a stiff and solid argument. There can be little doubt that he regarded his Theological Orations as the fulfilment of this promise. And in Oration XLII, in which Gregory took leave of Constantinople and the Council, he speaks of having already carefully dealt with the Scriptural texts around which the current contro versies raged - a description which would well suit the Theological Orations, especially the fourth. Everything therefore points to the correctness of the conclusion that the Five Orations were delivered - and probably published in writing - in the year 380.

Download or read book Sons of Hellenism Fathers of the Church written by Susanna Elm and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking study brings into dialogue for the first time the writings of Julian, the last non-Christian Roman Emperor, and his most outspoken critic, Bishop Gregory of Nazianzus, a central figure of Christianity. Susanna Elm compares these two men not to draw out the obvious contrast between the Church and the Emperor’s neo-Paganism, but rather to find their common intellectual and social grounding. Her insightful analysis, supplemented by her magisterial command of sources, demonstrates the ways in which both men were part of the same dialectical whole. Elm recasts both Julian and Gregory as men entirely of their times, showing how the Roman Empire in fact provided Christianity with the ideological and social matrix without which its longevity and dynamism would have been inconceivable.

Book excerpt: Gregory of Nazianzus, along with his friend, Basil of Caesarea, and with Basil's younger brother, Gregory of Nyssa, is considered one of the three great Cappadocian fathers." Together, in the Fourth Century, they defended the orthodox doctrine of the Trinity against Arian sects that denied the Consubstantiality of the Son (of one and the same substance or being) with the Father and the Deity and Personality of the Holy Spirit. "His principal opponents were the followers of Eunomius and Macedonius". "Eunomius was the first person to discontinue using the triune formula in baptism. He believed that God can be "perfectly known and comprehended by the human intellect;" and denied the full Deity of the Son; attributing full Deity only to the Father; As an Arian, he claimed there was a time when the Son did not exist, He was the Father's first creation and His Essence is altogether unlike that of the Father. Macedonius, accepted "the statement that the Son was Like in Essence to the Father", but declared the Holy Spirit to be a mere creature and the servant or minister of the Son. In response to these heretical movements, Gregory wrote The Five Theological Orations; and preached them at a church called Anastasia, in Constantinople, between 379 and 381. To Gregory, the Doctrine of the Holy Trinity is the fundamental dogma of the Christian faith. His defense of the Godhead (in particular the Deity of the Son) in his Orations, earned him the proper moniker, The Theologian.
