Platonism has played a central role in Christianity and is
essential to a deep understanding of the Christian theological
tradition. At times, Platonism has constituted an essential
philosophical and theological resource, furnishing Christianity
with an intellectual framework that has played a key role in its
early development, and in subsequent periods of renewal.
Alternatively, it has been considered a compromising influence,
conflicting with the faith's revelatory foundations and distorting
its inherent message. In both cases the fundamental importance of
Platonism, as a force which Christianity defined itself by and
against, is clear. Written by an international team of scholars,
this landmark volume examines the history of Christian Platonism
from antiquity to the present day, covers key concepts, and engages
issues such as the environment, natural science and materialism.
