The edition of <i>De opificio hominis</i> completes the <i>Gregorii Nysseni Opera</i>. This series of critical editions was initiated in 1908 by the classical philologist Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff and realized by Werner Jaeger and his disciples. Gregory of Nyssa (335-395 AD) is the true founder of a Christian philosophical anthropology. He discusses philosophical and medical concepts about the human constitution and relates them to the biblical verse Genesis 1,26-27 on the creation of the human being. Greek Christianity accepted Gregory's supplement to his brother's Basil <i>Homilies</i> on cosmology and transmitted both works together in a very rich manuscript tradition. Gregory's theological questions have not lost their urgency.
