    Content: "Jordan Daniel Wood changes the trajectory of patristic scholarship with this comprehensive historical and systematic study of one of the most creative and profound thinkers of the patristic era: Maximus Confessor (560-662 CE). Wood's panoramic vantage on Maximus's thought emulates the theological depth of Hans Urs von Balthasar's Cosmic Liturgy while also serving as a corrective to that classic text. Maximus's theological vision may be summed up in his enigmatic assertion that 'the Word of God, very God, wills always and in all things to actualize the mystery of his Incarnation.' The Whole Mystery of Christ sets out to explicate this claim. Attentive to the various contexts in which Maximus thought and wrote--including the wisdom of earlier church fathers, conciliar developments in Christological and Trinitarian doctrine, monastic and ascetic ways of life, and prominent contemporary philosophical traditions--the book explores the relations between God's act of creation and the Word's historical Incarnation, between the analogy of being and Christology, and between history and the Fall, in addition to treating such topics as grace, deification, theological predication, and the ontology of nature versus personhood. Perhaps uniquely among Christian thinkers, Wood argues, Maximus envisions creatio ex nihilo as creatio ex Deo in the event of the Word's kenosis: the mystery of Christ is the revealed identity of the Word's historical and cosmic Incarnation."--Back cover.
    Note: The God-world relation in modern Maximus scholarship -- The middle: Christo-logic -- The beginning: word becomes world -- The end: world becomes Trinity -- The whole: creation as Christ -- The whole mystery of Christ.

    Content: This book was born of an interest in debates about 'gnosis'. The subject was inspired by certain analogies between the construction of heresy and the representation of madness described by Michel Foucault in Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique (Madness and Civilization). In different periods one can discern the decision to separate normal from abnormal, the suppression of the voice of the other, the constitution of rationality by means of exclusion. An examination of the ancient sources, on the other hand, confirmed the reversal in the pioneering work of Walter Bauer (1934). Contrary to the thesis canonized by Eusebius of Caesarea, at the beginning there was no doctrinal unanimity in a simple and pure church, but rather a manifest pluralism. Yet Bauer's book ironically perpetuated the 'orthodox' essentialist view that the categories 'heresy' and 'orthodoxy' represent fixed entities. This investigation aims to demonstrate how the concept of heresy emerges in Justin Martyr, at a time when the very means to diminish conflicts were themselves diverse. This invention creates a concept capable of dominating every current suspected of endangering ecclesial harmony. This polemical tool transforms the tradition of Greek historiography of philosophical schools, by combining it with the apocalyptic theme of diabolical conspiracy. This model is refined by Irenaeus, then modified by Clement of Alexandria and Origen, who are closer to the philosophers. They do not reject everything that comes from 'heretics', even as they give pride of place to Greek philosophy. The analysis of the rhetorical processes of refutation also bears on the rules of biblical interpretation put in place to govern exegesis.
