Conclusion

This chapter underscores the principal conclusions drawn in previous chapters, especially regarding Gregory’s penchant for thinking via complex and ambiguous chains of imagery. It also underscores the reactive nature of his texts. Gregory was continually prodded not only by opponents but also by allies to revisit his own writings, to clarify matters, and to defend himself. These provocations grew out of the networks he developed as a prominent bishop in the pro-Nicene, pro-Melitian camp favored by Theodosius. Coupled with his rhetorical education, his apprenticeship to his brother, and his preaching at the church’s feast days, this context of accusations and mutual testing led Gregory to write in a certain way, framing his works around objections and counterarguments. These writing practices are inseparable from his doctrinal theology, and they structure not only technical treatises but also homilies, letters, and orations intended for more general audiences.
