TRS 859B Origen and Origenism
Origen of Alexandria established a comprehensive approach to early Christian thought and practice which left an often controversial mark on later Christian theology and spirituality. This doctoral seminar examines both the thought of Origen and the extension and development of his thought in thinkers like Eusebius of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, Evagrius of Pontus and other teachers and mystics through the "isochristoi" of the sixth century.
