A. N. Williams examines the conception of the intellect in
patristic theology from its beginnings in the work of the Apostolic
Fathers to Augustine and Cassian in the early fifth century. The
patristic notion of intellect emerges from its systematic relations
to other components of theology: the relation of human mind to the
body and the will; the relation of the human to the divine
intellect; of human reason to divine revelation and secular
philosophy; and from the use of the intellect in both theological
reflection and spiritual contemplation. The patristic conception of
that intellect is therefore important for the way it signals the
character of early Christian theology as both systematic and
contemplative and as such, distinctive in its approach from secular
philosophies of its time and modern Christian theology.
