The Eastern Christian Tradition in Modern Russian Thought and Beyond
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-52181-0 (ISBN)
In The Eastern Christian Tradition in Modern Russian Thought and Beyond, Teresa Obolevitch reflects on the ontology and anthropology of neo-patristic synthesis and its connection to Western philosophy, with a focus on the work of Georges Florovsky and Vladimir Lossky. The book also examines the concept of apophaticism in Russian philosophy: in neo-patristic synthesis and the thought of Semyon Frank and Lev Karsavin, as well as in epistemological and cosmological comparison with process theology. Additionally, Obolevitch’s work undertakes a comparative analysis of the reception of Russian sophiology in the West, especially in the work of Thomas Merton, and also considers similarities between neo-patristic synthesis and Zen Buddhism in the thought of Merton and Sergey Horujy.
Teresa Obolevitch, Ph.D. is professor at the Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, Poland. She is the author of numerous articles and several books, including Faith and Science in Russian Religious Thought (Oxford University Press, 2019).
