Bringing together international scholars from across a range of
linked disciplines to examine the concept of the person in the
Greek Christian East, Personhood in the Byzantine Christian
Tradition stretches in its scope from the New Testament to
contemporary debates surrounding personhood in Eastern Orthodoxy.
Attention is paid to a number of pertinent areas that have not
hitherto received the scholarly attention they deserve, such as
Byzantine hymnography and iconology, the work of early miaphysite
thinkers, as well as the relevance of late Byzantine figures to the
discussion. Similarly, certain long-standing debates surrounding
the question are revisited or reframed, whether regarding the
concept of the person in Maximus the Confessor, or with
contributions that bring patristic and modern Orthodox theology
into dialogue with a variety of contemporary currents in
philosophy, moral psychology, and political science. In opening up
new avenues of inquiry, or revisiting old avenues in new ways, this
volume brings forward an important and on-going discussion
regarding concepts of personhood in the Byzantine Christian
tradition and beyond, and provides a key stimulus for further work
in this field.
