The orthodox Byzantine tradition is still often undervalued and misunderstood in the Western churches. This books gives a vivid introduction to the leading figures, key themes and values of this living and ancient form of Christian spirituality. At the centre of the Byzantine experience are ideas which western Christians share, and from which they still have much to learn: beauty, endurance, and hopefulness.
