Origeniana Octava
Origen and the Alexandrian Tradition
Edited by L. Perrone
Studies on Origen at the beginning of the 21st century continue to dig old and new grounds of research. After the epoch-making rediscovery of the great Alexandrian doctor throughout the past century, contemporary research increasingly deals with the close context of his writings and thought: the cultural tradition of Alexandria in all its components – Hellenistic, Jewish, Egyptian, Gnostic and Christian. This topic was the theme chosen for the Colloquium Origenianum Octavum (Pisa, 27-31 August 2001), a major event of patristic scholarship. The proceedings now contain more than 100 papers of contributors from about 30 countries. They not only provide the best overview on a lively field of studies but also demonstrate how Origen’s heritage in Christian history and theology carried with it the imprint of one of the most vital traditions of Western civilization.
