Recenzii
'Gabrielle Thomas offers us a fresh, profound, and insightful treatment of how Gregory the Theologian understands the human being as 'in the image of God' and how this relates to our call to deification. Emphatic that the 'image' extends to the whole human being, Gregory, as Thomas shows, sees the body itself, in its vulnerability and weakness, and so its openness to the divine, as an integral part of the human being fashioned into the image of God, that is, Christ himself. This book is a very welcome addition to the literature on Gregory and patristic anthropology and spirituality more generally.' John Behr, Georges Florovsky Distinguished Professor of Patristics, St Vladimir's Seminary, New York and Metropolitan Kallistos Chair of Orthodox Theology, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam
'In a work of expansive erudition, Gabrielle Thomas presents us with human beings as Gregory of Nazianzus wanted us to see them: visible, material eikones of God, living statues of the deity, who can demand worship of Satan, on God's behalf. Her approach captures the unitive character of Gregory's anthropology in the soul's spiritualising of the body, and takes his demonology and angelology as seriously as he does, replacing the human eikon in its theodramatic context. Here at last is an account of Gregory's vision of human existence fully fleshed out, porous to God's deifying action and vulnerable to demonic attack.' Ben Fulford, University of Chester
'This book offers a thorough analysis of the image of God … This is a rich and stimulating study which makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the thought and theology of Gregory of Nazianzus.' Christos Simelidis, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
'The book is highly recommended for anyone interested in patristic exegesis or theological anthropology.' Adam T. Morton, International Journal of Systematic Theology
'All in all, a learned and elegant book … a very good showing on the basis of a careful scholarly analysis, and one that adds to the literature on patristic theology an essential text.' Father John A. McGuckin, Journal of Orthodox Christian Studies
'… Thomas presents a unique, full-length overview of Gregory's theology of the human εἰκών … making it the definitive study on the image of God in his theology.' Hannah Black, Modern Theology
'… the student or scholar of early Christianity who reads with a critical eye should find this volume to be a stimulating and insightful contribution to the field.' Brendan A. Harris, Religious Studies Review
