Clemente de Alejandría: los tres tipos de muerte y su alcance moral

clement of alexandria is the first christian philosopher who organizes a systematic presentation of the concept of the death, a privileged place for anthropology and moral doctrine. in his three major works, protrepticus, paedagogus and stromata, clement exposes the moral character that involves the concept of θ？νατο？ (death) and its dependence on a key concept of christian theology, ？μαρτ？α (sin). based on this relation, clement divides death in three typologies: physical death, death of the soul and gnostic death. in all cases the congregation of greek and jewish philosophy favors the understanding of a thanatologic logic already systematized by the time of the alexandrian writer.
