Gregory of Nyssa’s Change of Mind about the Heart

In this essay I investigate Gregory of Nyssa’s view of the human heart in three works: De hominis opificio, De beatitudinibus, and In Canticum canticorum.

520 |a In this essay I investigate Gregory of Nyssa’s view of the human heart in three works: De hominis opificio, De beatitudinibus, and In Canticum canticorum. I show that Gregory’s view of the heart undergoes a significant development, and argue that this development is caused by his particular reading of the beatitude ‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God’. In essence, I show that Gregory shifts from a predominantly physical understanding of the heart as a bodily organ to a more spiritualized understanding of the heart as the means through which one comes into communion with God.
