Abstract
El objetivo de este trabajo es aportar una serie de claves sobre la relación entre el cristianismo y el paganismo, a comienzos de la Antigüedad Tardía, a través de un estudio sobre la obra del filósofo neoplatónico Porfirio. En primer lugar, analizaremos las dimensiones de las disputas anticristianas del filósofo para indicar, posteriormente, cómo estas se articulan a través del problema de la salvación. Daremos una breve caracterización de la salvación en el sistema filosófico de Porfirio. Finalmente, comentaremos cómo las diferencias que el neoplatónico y los cristianos dieron al mismo problema indican la fractura insuperable entre dos modelos discursivos en conflicto que representarán las claves fundamentales de la evolución política y religiosa del Imperio Romano en el tránsito del siglo III al IV.
