La epektasis y las hazañas De anima et resurrectione de Gregorio de Nisa

Main Article Content

Elena Ene D-Vasilescu

El artículo se refiere a una noción central de la teología de Gregorio de Nisa: la de epektasis(ἐπέkτασις), es decir, la progresión del alma (ἡψυχή) hacia su Creador, como se presenta en el diálogo De anima et resurrectione/Sobre el alma y la resurrección. La conversación entre Nissa ysu hermana Macrina, empleando conceptos propios de la ciencia más avanzada de su tiempo, enfatiza que en el más allá el alma no abandona el cuerpo (tampoco la memoria humana). También se discuten las interesantes consecuencias de este estado de cosas tanto para la resurrección de las personas como para la de Jesús Cristo.

Palabras clave
