Dynamis in Gregory of Nyssa's Trinitarian Theology
Michel Rene Barnes
Gregory of Nyssa is widely regarded as the most substantial thinker and theologian among the three Cappadocians and is often used as the representative of Greek trinitarian theology. Through a fresh examination of Gregory's trinitarian theology in its historical context, Michel Rene Barnes reveals the special importance of the concept of "power"- dynamis. The book also brings to light the way in which "power" served as a fundamental concept in all stages of patristic trinitarian theology and shows the origins of the concept in Greek philosophy and medicine."
