Abstract

Sommario
Il pensiero cristiano antico, di epoca prenicena (II e III secolo), presenta posizioni diverse relativamente al tema della salus carnis, la salvezza escatologica della materialità dell’essere umano e della creazione. L’articolo intende proporre a studenti e studiosi di antropologia teologica una comparazione sintetica tra due modelli di teologia patristica che rispettivamente sostengono o faticano ad integrare il tema: quello di Ireneo di Lione, esponente della cosiddetta tradizione asiatica, e quello di Origene, esponente del pensiero
alessandrino.

Summary - Salus carnis. Pre-Nicene Anthropological Models Compared: Irenaeus and Origen

Ancient Christian thought, in the pre-Nicene era (2nd and 3rd centuries), presents different positions on the theme of salus carnis, the eschatological salvation of the materiality of human beings and creation. This article aims to offer students and scholars of theological anthropology a concise comparison between two models of patristic theology that respectively support or struggle to integrate the theme: that of Irenaeus of Lyon, exponent of the so-called Asiatic tradition, and that of Origen, exponent of Alexandrian thought.
