Diese Arbeit untersucht, wie Philip Melanchthon griechische patristische Quellen in seiner Karriere nutzte. Die kappadokischen Väter werden als Werkzeuge für die evangelisch-lutherische Theologie zur Rechtfertigung durch Glauben, Bildung für Theologen und als Modelle der griechischen Grammatik betrachtet. Melanchthons Umgang mit diesen Quellen wird im Kontext seiner Zeit analysiert.
