Abstract

The present study focuses mainly on how ethos is configured in Gregory Nazianzus’s First Theological Oration and how the pre-ethos influences this process. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory on language and symbolic power and Ruth Amossy’s view on ethos at the crossroad of disciplines ground our scientific enterprise. In brief, we analyse Naziasus’s approach of his audience, of his pre-ethos, of the contradictions among different types of habitus and markets (in Bourdieu’s terms) so that he could establish a stable definition of the theological discourse.
