Publisher's summary

The seven works in this volume (some translated for the first time) explore the great human mystery of death and the promise of eternal life. They present—along with On the Soul and the Resurrection (PPS 12)—a vision that is consistent, philosophically profound, and characteristic of Gregory’s wider theology.

The first three works (On the Dead, On Infants Taken Away before Their Time, and On the “Final Subjection” of Christ) might be termed thematic essays; the fourth is a sermon celebrating Christ’s resurrection (On the Holy Pascha); and the remaining three are funeral homilies given for prominent people in Constantinople (Meletius, Pulcheria, and Flaccilla).

This volume includes the critical Greek text. The SVS Press audiobook program is sponsored by The Orthodox Vision Foundation. If you are interested in sponsoring the creation of an SVS Press audiobook, please contact us at media@svots.edu.

Great theology from an early church father.

The narrator is awesome. He does a number of the Popular Patristics series. Saint Gregory of Nyssa is a very deep, very philosophical apologist of the early church that should be read (listened to). DEEP, heady stuff. I highly recommend it.
