Résumé
--
Between the 4th and 8th centuries, certain doctrines recognised as being heterodox showed philosophic influences from outside the Christian tradition (such as the Arianism of Eunomius). Yet where Christological debate appears to be purely intra-ecclesial, they nevertheless conserve a wide understanding of the originality of the Christian faith compared with other traditions. Moreover, important as they may have been to authors who claimed to be Christians (whether faithful to Nicaea or supporters of Arius, Chalcedonians or members of a Nestorian or Monophysite Church), their debates should not let us forget the situations which Christianity, in the second half of the Patristic period, had to confront: ancient and new religious traditions - from Judaism and the currents emanating from the Greco-Roman world to Islam - not forgetting the wisdoms or religions from China, discovered by Nestorian missionaries from Persia at the end of that period. This is the context – as vast as the Orient as it was then known – in which Christians of the 4th-8th centuries strove to disseminate the meaning of faith in Christ. The challenge was to bear witness to their faith in a world where all sorts of beliefs, practices and religious traditions held sway… a challenge that has lost none of its modernity.
