Even in the twenty-first century, critical and creative engagement with modern and postmodern philosophy is a rarity in Orthodox circles. The collection of essays presented here by Christoph Schneider makes a significant contribution to overcoming this deficit. Eight scholars from six different countries, working on the intersection between Orthodox thought and philosophy, present their research in short and accessible form. The topics covered range from political philosophy to phenomenology, metaphysics, philosophy of self, logic, ethics, and philosophy of language. The authors do not all promote one particular approach to the relationship between Orthodox theology and philosophy. Nevertheless, taken together, their work demonstrates that Orthodox scholarship is not con fined to historical research about the Byzantine era, but can contribute to, and enrich, contemporary intellectual debates.
Christoph Schneider is Academic Director andLecturer in Systematic and Philosophical Theology at the Institute for OrthodoxChristian Studies in Cambridge. His research interests include the relationbetween Orthodox theology and Continental philosophy, and ecumenical dialoguebetween Orthodox and Protestant theology. He is the joint-Editor of DivineEssence and Divine Energies.
