Note on the Continuity of the Doctrine of Apokatastasis in Gregory of Nyssa: from De anima et resurrectione to In illud: Tunc et ipse Filius

Summary/Abstract: In this article I endeavour to demonstrate that St Gregory of Nyssa continued to support the doctrine of apokatastasis over a long period and never rejected it in any way. I first analyse his De anima et resurrectione, which belongs to an early phase of his production, and then his In illud: Tunc et ipse Filius, which is a later writing. In the latter, the doctrine of apokatastasis is, if possible, even more strongly asserted. The close analysis of Gregory's arguments in these works clearly demonstrates that he heavily depends on Origen not only for his main point but also in many and many single elements.
