欧洲中世纪基督教神学文化形成的原因

The Cause for Emergence of European Christian Science in Middle Ages

关于基督教神学如何成为欧洲中世纪初期占主导地位文化的原因问题,以往的学者均看到希腊罗马和希伯来文化(二希)的影响。但是,二者究竟怎样从分属不同的上古文化形态造就了欧洲中世纪文化的独特构成,本文提出,人类从神话思维到宗教思维是造成原始宗教向神学宗教转变的根本原因。同时,还有希腊罗马文化被理性总结时的神学价值取向、基督教与当时人们的历史需求的契合、基督教学说与西方远古文化精神某些内在的一致性以及基督教自身巨大的文化包容性等原因。正是这些因素的综合作用,造成了“二希”

As for the problem that how the Christian theology became the dominative culture in the early peroid of European Middle Ages, the former scholars have all acknowledged that was the result from Hellenic-Roman and Hebrew culture affection. However, why these two kinds of culture which belong to different ancient cultural patterns constituted special medieval culture of Europe? The article below bringsforth that the radical cause of the change from primitive religion to theological religion was that human's thinking changed from mythological to religious. Meanwhile, the action of the synthetical.factors, such as the theological evaluation out of the Hellenic-Roman culture summarized by reason, the agreement between christianity and the human's historical need by that time, some internal consonance of christian theories with western encient cultural spirits and the huge capacity of Christianity to absorb different cultures, made Hellenic-Hebrew cultures medieval.
