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.
