Ulteriores consideraciones a partir del sermón XXXIII Noce, Esteban Maximus of Turin Gentilitas Conversion Fidelitas Máximo de Turín gentilitas conversión fidelitas Maximus of Turin, Gentilitas, Conversion, Fidelitas In recent studies we have considered the way Maximus of Turin (…398- …423) used the terms gentilis and paganus to refer to two entities that were different and opposed in some essential characteristics: while paganus referred to those who had known and rejected Christianity, and who deserved eternal death for that; gentilis was applied to those who were still unaware of Christianity and, as a consequence, lived a secular life signed by ignorance and suffering. This last situation could be overcome becoming a Christian, undergoing a process of spiritual purification run by the Church. The aim of this paper will be to deepen our understanding of the ways to overcome gentilitas and become fidelis according to Maximus. Based on the analysis of sermo XXXIII, we will try to demonstrate that moving from gentilitas to fidelitas not only required a purifying stage, but also a subsequent attributive phase addressed by the author through the image of fermentum and farina. En el curso de los últimos años hemos evidenciado que Máximo de Turín empleó los términos gentilis y paganus para referir a dos entidades no solo diversas, sino incluso opuestas en sus características principales: en tanto que el autor consideraba pagani a quienes habían conocido y rechazado el cristianismo, mereciendo por ello la condena eterna, denominaba gentiles a aquellos que, ignorando aún la nueva fe, experimentaban una existencia secular signada por la ignorancia y el sufrimiento. Esta última condición, sin embargo, podía ser superada en caso de que el individuo se mostrase dispuesto a devenir christianus atravesando un proceso de depuración espiritual administrado por la Iglesia. El objetivo de este trabajo es profundizar nuestro conocimiento acerca del modo en que Máximo concebía el proceso que permitía superar la gentilitas y devenir fidelis. En base al análisis del sermón XXXIII, procuraremos evidenciar que el paso de la gentilitas a la fidelitas requería, junto a aquella fase depurativa, una posterior instancia atributiva, desarrollada por el autor a partir de la figura del fermentum y la farina.

In recent studies we have considered the way Maximus of Turin (…398- …423) used the terms gentilis and paganus to refer to two entities that were different and opposed in some essential characteristics: while paganus referred to those who had known and rejected Christianity, and who deserved eternal death for that; gentilis was applied to those who were still unaware of Christianity and, as a consequence, lived a secular life signed by ignorance and suffering. This last situation could be overcome becoming a Christian, undergoing a process of spiritual purification run by the Church. The aim of this paper will be to deepen our understanding of the ways to overcome gentilitas and become fidelis according to Maximus.
