Gregory of Nyssa: Contra Eunomium I

An English Translation with Supporting Studies

Series: 

The Contra Eunomium is probably Gregory of Nyssa’s most challenging work with regards to his theological and philosophical thought, and one that continues to draw the deeper attention of contemporary scholars.
This volume devoted to Contra Eunomium I constitutes, in a certain way, a new version of the Proceedings of the 6th International Colloquium on Gregory of Nyssa (1988). It offers a revised English translation of Contra Eunomium I by S. G. Hall, accompanied by twenty-two supporting studies from a broad range of philological, philosophical, and theological perspectives. These studies include a selection of the most relevant papers of the 1988 Proceedings, supplemented with new contributions that explore relevant issues developed by contemporary research.

'It is very good news that Brill’s trilogy of scholarship on Contra Eunomium has now been completed. [...] It also now includes (like the volumes on CE II and III) an English translation of Gregory’s work by Stuart George Hall. As in his translations of CE II and III, he is successful in his aim of writing ‘good modern English’ whilst reflecting Gregory’s ‘highly literary style’[.. ] There is much excellent bibliographical material added by the current editors in footnotes to the older studies in this volume.' - ROBIN ORTON, London, in: Journal of Theological Studies 70.2 (October 2019)
