Abstract

Clement of Alexandria (150-215) lived and taught in the most lively intellectual centre of his day. This book offers a comprehensive account of how he joined the ideas of the New Testament to those of Plato and other classical thinkers. Clement taught that God was active from the beginning to the end of human history and that a Christian life should move on from simple faith to knowledge and love. He argued that a sequence of three elliptical relations governed the universe: Father and Son, God and humanity, humans and their neighbours. Faith as a fixed conviction which is also a growing mustard seed was joined to Plato's unwavering search for the best reason. The open heaven of prophecy became intelligible through Plato's ascending dialectic. This book will be invaluable in making this outstanding thinker of the early Church accessible to the students of today.

Abstract

Can humans know God? Can created beings approach the Uncreated? The concept of God and questions about our ability to know him are central to this book. Eastern Orthodox theology distinguishes between knowing God as he is (his divine essence) and as he presents himself (through his energies), and thus it both negates and affirms the basic question: man cannot know God in his essence, but may know him through his energies. Henny Fiska Hagg investigates this earliest stage of Christian negative (apophatic) theology, as well as the beginnings of the distinction between essence and energies, focusing on Clement of Alexandria in the late second century. Clement's theological, social, religious, and philosophical milieu is also considered, as is his indebtedness to Middle Platonism and its concept of God.

Abstract

The Stromateis of Clement of Alexandria (c.150-215 CE) has received much scholarly debate over whether it can be accorded the role of the third and highest phase of his pedagogy. This was a treatise that promised an account of the true philosophy of Christ set down for Christians seeking higher knowledge of doctrine. This book takes a new approach to deciphering the nature and purpose of these enigmatic books concentrating on the close relationship between method and doctrine, and the number and sequence of the texts as they have come down to us. The outcome is a concise summary of current scholarship on Clement’s method and a fresh picture of how he applies it to the transmission of esoteric doctrines.

Abstract

The so-called eighth Stromateus (‘liber logicus’) by Clement of Alexandria (d. before 221 C.E.) is an understudied source for ancient philosophy, particularly the tradition of the Aristotelian methodology of science, scepticism, and the theories of causation. A series of capitula dealing with inquiry and demonstration, it bears but few traces of Christian interests. In this volume, Matyáš Havrda provides a new edition, translation, and lemmatic commentary of the text. The vexing question of the origin of this material and its place within Clement’s oeuvre is also addressed. Defending the view of ‘liber logicus’ as a collection of excerpts made or adopted by Clement for his own (apologetic and exegetical) use, Havrda argues that its source could be Galen’s lost treatise On Demonstration.

Abstract

À une génération de distance, Clément d’Alexandrie (vers 150-vers 215) et Origène (185/187-251/253) sont des représentants éminents de la tradition intellectuelle et savante d’Alexandrie. Ils l’ont profondément renouvelée en faisant appel à la Bible qu’ils lisent en s’inspirant de l’exégèse juive et chrétienne et en utilisant les ressources mises à leur disposition par la littérature et la philosophie grecques. Il y a peu de monographies récentes en français sur ces auteurs, et aucune qui les associe. Le chapitre consacré à Clément est rédigé par Alain Le Boulluec. Il retrace sa biographie, analyse chacune de ses œuvres conservées, examine sa méthode exégétique et sa manière de composer, présente ce que l’on sait de ses écrits perdus. Le chapitre sur Origène est dû à Gilles Dorival. Il décrit les instruments de travail et les éditions, s’interroge sur la possibilité d’établir sa biographie, présente ses écrits (travaux sur l’Ancien et le Nouveau Testaments, traités, lettres, fragments papyrologiques, œuvres inauthentiques), analyse les controverses qu’il a suscitées depuis l’Antiquité jusqu’à l’époque contemporaine. Un chapitre de conclusion rédigé de concert récapitule ce qui rapproche Clément et Origène et insiste sur ce qui les différencie.
