Clement of Alexandria
c. 150 – 215 · Ante-Nicene theologians · Alexandrian
Titus Flavius Clemens; head of the catechetical school of Alexandria after Pantaenus; teacher of Origen. His Protrepticus, Paedagogus, and Stromata together form a deliberate ascent from the call to conversion, through Christian formation, to the contemplation of divine things. Highly esteemed as a teacher in the Orthodox tradition (commemorated 4/5 December in some local synaxaria).
