 The Christian writers of late antiquity are famous for their foundational and decisive contribution to the formation of the Church’s teaching. Rarely has it been recognized, however, that they also pursued an ambitious and exciting philosophical project alongside their engagement in the doctrinal controversies of their age. In this book, I will for the first time offer a full analysis of this Patristic philosophy. I will show how it took its distinctive shape in the late fourth century and give an account of its subsequent development until the time of John of Damascus. In this Introduction, I will outline the approach taken, explain the selection of authors that will be examined, and give a précis of my overall argument.
