Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton Theological Seminary, 2003.

This thesis intends to trace the philosophical and theological pattern of processio and reditus in John the Scot, Eriugena. Even in a primitive mode, the pattern of procession and return is developed among the early Fathers and philosophers. Dionysius synthesizes Greek philosophy and Christian theology in his articulation of remaining, procession, and return. He refines major themes like hierarchy and apophatic and cataphatic theologies. In Maximus the Confessor, we find a subtle application of procession and return to the salvation history of Christianity.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This thesis intends to trace the philosophical and theological pattern of processio and reditus in John the Scot, Eriugena. Even in a primitive mode, the pattern of procession and return is developed among the early Fathers and philosophers. Dionysius synthesizes Greek philosophy and Christian theology in his articulation of remaining, procession, and return. He refines major themes like hierarchy and apophatic and cataphatic theologies. In Maximus the Confessor, we find a subtle application of procession and return to the salvation history of Christianity.
520 $a Procession and return permeates Eriugena's corpus. Everything proceeds from God and returns to God. The fourfold textual structure of Periphyseon and the definition of natura show the significance of procession and return. The main part of my dissertation consists of a "triptych," putting the dialectic contact point of Christ and humanity at the center, and placing procession and return at both sides respectively. Eriugena's concept of procession begins from God. Movement from God's unity to God's Trinity is the first theophany in procession. John employs several terms to describe the creation in procession like substantiation, divine motion, creatio ex nihilo, and theophany. They reveal the continuity in procession and John's biblical exegesis.
520 $a While procession and return is a conceptual framework, Christ and humanity are the central agents who embody the dialectic turning point. Humanity as microcosm reflects the divine characteristics and encapsulates every creature in itself. John's anthropology is related to the issues like Paradise, Christ's Incarnation, and human freewill. It is in his Christology where we observe the best illustration of procession and return. John's Christological application of procession and return is demonstrated in his "vermicular Christology," the fivefold constitution of nature, and the symbolic meaning of the corner.
520 $a Metaphysical, cosmological, and anthropological aspects of John's theology depict the pattern of return. John's return consists of general and special returns, portrayed through his biblical exegesis. John's definition of symbols and parabolic transition display the core of his spiritual interpretation. Among many biblical examples, the tree in Paradise and the parable of the ten virgins well dramatize the double return.
