Book Synopsis Gregory of Nyssa, Ancient and (Post)modern by : Morwenna Ludlow
Book excerpt: The fourth-century Christian thinker, Gregory of Nyssa, has been the subject of a huge variety of interpretations over the past fifty years. Morwenna Ludlow analyses these recent readings, and asks: What do they reveal about modern and postmodern interpretations of the Christian past? What do they say about the nature of Gregory's writing?
