Résumé

This book explores the profound and multifaceted theology of the Eucharist as developed by the early Church Fathers. It delves into their writings, from the Apostolic Fathers through the Cappadocians and Latin Fathers, illuminating how they understood the Eucharist as the Real Presence of Christ, a sacrificial offering, and a means of unity within the Church. Key figures like St. Ignatius of Antioch, St.
Augustine, St. John Chrysostom, and St. Ambrose of Milan each contributed uniquely to the theological richness surrounding the Eucharist. Their works demonstrate that the Eucharist is not merely symbolic but a transformative encounter with Christ's Body and Blood. Themes such as Eucharistic sacrifice, mystical participation in divine life, and the Eucharist's role in salvation history are carefully examined, showing its centrality to Christian worship, spiritual life, and ecclesial unity. By tracing the evolution of Eucharistic theology, this book reveals how the Church Fathers laid the foundation for later doctrinal developments and deepened the Church's understanding of this sacrament as the source and summit of the Christian life.
It provides insights into how the Eucharist shaped the early Christian community and continues to inform the faith and devotion of Catholics today.
