Polyphonic theology of the fathers / polyphone Theologie der Kirchenväter Bemerkungen zu einem Konzept und seiner Brauchbarkeit
Zeitschriftenartikel

The contribution is presenting a new focus on the development of Christian theology in Antiquity: the idea of a polyphonic theology of the Fathers. This idea uses the term 'polyphony', well established in music theory and in certain forms of Literary criticism and Biblical theology, to describe a certain structured plurality in the concepts of certain individual ancient theologians and in the overall design of Christian theology in Antiquity. The first part gives certain details about the term 'polyphony' used to describe forms of thinking, like polyphony in music consists of two or more lines of melody of certain independence (opposed to homophony), the second part asks which new insights one can get using the new idea to analyze ancient Christian literature and the third part deals with certain problems of the approach.
