Summary: | The study of Christology in the fourth century is as difficult as it is rewarding, but research in this area remains scarce. The contributions collected in this volume, therefore, fulfil an important scholarly desideratum. They also, individually and collectively, contribute major pointers for future work in the field. My aim in this response will not be to discuss every issue raised or discussed in the preceding chapters. Rather, I will offer my own, necessarily subjective sketch of major challenges in the study of fourth-century Christology together with some suggestions on how these can be addressed. In doing so, I benefit throughout from the many insights contained in the chapters of this book and shall comment them as I go along. |
