Summary
The book deals with the question of whether or not Origen's Trinity can be compared with Plotinus' three hypostaseis. The work focusses on the problem of the third hypostasis. This question is discussed in regard to the middle Platonic background (Alkinoos, Numenios, Klemens) and the the main problems in the works of Origen and Plotinus. The result is: Origen's doctrine of the Trinity and Plotinus' doctrine of the three hypostaseis proceeded independent of each other.
