Итог: | Both the history of the Church and Dogmengeschichte witness to an ambiguity in the reception of Origen’s theology. But the last decades have offered new results, ranging from the discovery of the original Greek text of the homilies on the Psalms to the development of a relational and anti-reductionist epistemology for the history of dogma. These developments make possible a new picture of the great Alexandrine’s theology more faithful to his intention, which can be grasped only through a prayer-based approach, as in Sarah Coakley’s and Lorenzo Perrone’s works. Origen’s main concern was to identify the purely spiritual dimension with the Trinity, highlighting how Christian theology differentiates itself with respect to both Stoicism and Gnosticism. This brought Origen to formulate two main models for the Trinity: the triangular one and the linear one. Their interplay shows that it is impossible to divide Christology from Pneumatology, thereby inspiring the first attempts to systematize the doctrine of the triune God towards a relational picture. From this perspective, the fourth-century criticisms by Athanasius and the Cappadocians of the political theology based on the Arian reading of the monarchy, allegedly according to Origen’s Trinitarian theology, can now be presented as a faithful (relational) development of the Alexandrine’s heritage. |
