Gregorii Nysseni, De anima et resurrectione: Opera dogmatica minora. Pars III


Overview

In his 'De anima et resurrectione', the church father Gregory of Nyssa (4th century A.D.) presents the Christian doctrine of resurrection. His argument is based on the ancient understanding of the soul. Gregory continues, both in form (dialogue) and in content (teaching on the immortality of the soul), the philosophical tradition, especially in its Platonic shape. But he develops it further by seeking a logical foundation for the Christian doctrine of the resurrection of the body including apokatastasis. This Greek text presents a first critical edition based on all the available manuscripts (72). It is, in method as well as in its presentation, part of the famous edition Gregorii Nysseni Opera, going back to Werner Jaeger and Hermann Langerbeck. In dieser Schrift legt der Kirchenvater Gregor von Nyssa (4. Jahrhundert) die christliche Lehre von der Auferstehung dar. Seine Argumentation geht von der Definition der Seele aus. Dabei knüpft er, in Form (Dialog) und Inhalt (Unsterblichkeitslehre), an philosophische Traditionen an. Die Nähe zu Plato ist groß. Aber Gregor versucht darüber hinaus zu beweisen, dass die christliche Lehre von der Auferstehung des Leibes logisch ist und die Apokatastasis einschließt. Der griechische Text ist die erste kritische Edition, die sich auf alle erreichbaren Handschriften (72) stützt. In Arbeitsmethode und Textpräsentation reiht sie sich in die große Ausgabe Gregorii Nysseni Opera, die Werner Jaeger und Hermann Langerbeck begründet haben, ein.
