The Christian Platonists of Alexandria is a book written by Charles Bigg that explores the influence of Platonism on early Christianity, particularly in Alexandria, Egypt. The book examines the works and ideas of several influential Christian thinkers, including Clement of Alexandria, Origen, and Athanasius, and how they integrated Platonic philosophy into their theology. Bigg argues that the Christian Platonists of Alexandria were able to reconcile the ideas of Plato with Christian doctrine, creating a unique and influential theological tradition. The book also discusses the controversies and debates that arose among these thinkers and how their ideas were received by the wider Christian community. Overall, The Christian Platonists of Alexandria provides a comprehensive and insightful look into the intersection of Platonism and Christianity in the early years of the faith.1886.
