| Summary: | Matthieu Cassin offers us a thorough and well-researched study, full of originality. It focuses chiefly on the ten sections or τόμοι of Contra Eunomium III. All three books contra Eunomium are considered, and with them the Refutatio confessionis Eunomii, a later work of Gregory reacting to a public confession of faith by his adversary. There is first an introduction to the literature, including a full and up-to-date description of the state of the manuscript tradition. Recent discoveries have confirmed Jaeger’s analysis, which found the order of Gregory’s three books to be wrong in the surviving copies. These all flow from an ‘Alexandrian’ tradition, already corrected by Peter of Callinicum in the late sixth century from his now lost Antiochene sources. |
