ABSTRACT
Evagrius’s teaching on the last things demands close attention. One historical reason for this is the connection between his eschatology with the Origenist condemnations at Constantinople 553. On the basis of textual correspondences, it can be asserted beyond reasonable doubt that anathemas 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 specifically target Evagrius’s eschatology. Because modern accounts of Evagrius’s doctrine of the last things have preferred to rely upon the 553 articles rather than assess his thought on its own merit, these Evagrius’s views remain elusive and in need of revisiting.
