During the council of Ephesus, called by Emperor Theodosius II, a new christological controversy over the unity of Christ arose between Cyril of Alexandria and Nestorius of Constantinople. The theological term that took center stage was Θεοτόκος, Mother of God. 1

Theodor Dieter rightly states that, "While the via antiqua insisted on a close connection between the arts faculty and the theological faculty, interpreting Aristotle as consonant with faith, the via moderna emphasized the differences between natural insight (Aristotle) and supernatural faith, and pointed to tensions and contradiction between them." 3 Who were the theologians of the via antiqua? This stream of thought included figures such as Aristotle, Averroes, Albert the Great, but more specifically it referred to Thomas Aquinas, Bonaventure, and John Duns Scotus. 4 If these figures were considered to be a part of the via antiqua then who were the theologians of the via moderna?

One of the leading contemporary Trinitarian theologian who contributes to this debate is John Zizioulas (1931-), whose Trinitarian theology is both deconstructive and constructive. Zizioulas gives many critiques of Western Trinitarian theologies however, they could all be summarized as one main critique namely, that western Trinitarian theology safeguards monotheism at the cost of Trinitarianism. 1
