Description
Summary:This study offers an analytical reading of two anthropological works of Gregory of Nyssa, De opificio hominis and De anima et resurrectione, in order to investigate the hypothesis of an aesthetic perspective, based on the frequent use of terms like καλόν, κάλλοϛ, etc. This perspective is identified in Gregory’s protology, ethics and eschatology as they develop. The Greek word καλόν is ambiguous between "beautiful" and "good", but is interpreted here, according to context, in an aesthetic sense.
