Summary/Abstract: Christology, pneumatology and triadology are omnipresent themes in the work of the French Dominican Yves Congar. They are most often related to the life of the Church, to ecclesiology and thus to the economy of salvation, while speculations on ontology or Trinitarian theology are much rarer. In order to understand Congar's thought in terms of the above themes, it must be divided into two periods: before and after the Second Vatican Council. In the pre-conciliar period, Congar's theology is predominantly Christocentric, in which the Holy Spirit is not conspicuously absent, but his role is clearly subordinate to Christ. After the Second Vatican Council, a certain evolution in their Christological and Pneumatological thinking can be observed. At the beginning of the seventies of the last century, Western theology had to face certain criticisms, especially from Orthodox theology, which accused it of Christomonism. The main objection was that the Latins tended to make the Holy Spirit a mere function of Christ, the former merely doing the work of the latter. Because of these criticisms, the Dominican theologian felt the need for deep reflection, inviting Western theology to self-criticism. In this way, he would better articulate the work of the Son and the Holy Spirit, which would have a number of consequences for the understanding of the Holy Trinity.
