关于 任卓贤教授

Colten Yam received both his Doctor of Theology and Habilitation from the Faculty of Protestant Theology at the Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen, Germany. His research focuses on Patristics and early Christianity, in particular, Augustine, Basil of Caesarea, Neoplatonism, Trinitarian theology in Early Christianity, and natural science in Late Antiquity. His doctoral dissertation was published as Trinity and Grace in Augustine: An Analysis of De trinitate 8-10 in Light of De spiritu et littera (Brill | Schöningh, 2019), while his habilitation thesis, Basil of Caesarea: An Analytical Commentary on Homiliae in hexaemeron 6-9, is forthcoming with Mohr Siebeck (Studien und Texte zu Antike und Christentum, 2026). He has also published a number of articles covering a broad range of themes in early Christianity – anthropology and Trinitarian thought, astronomy, zoology, medicine, and emotions. He is currently working on two monograph projects: “Latin-Chinese Bilingual Edition of De spiritu et littera” and “Imago Dei in the Later Augustine.”

 

Colten serves as the Director of the Centre for Christian Studies at CUHK and the Chairperson of the Pastoral and Spiritual Committee of Chung Chi College, CUHK.
