Georges Florovsky (1893-1979) was one of the most prominent
Orthodox theologians and ecumenists of the twentieth century. His
call for a return to patristic writings as a source of modern
theological reflection had a powerful impact not only on Orthodox
theology in the second half of the twentieth century, but on
Christian theology in general. Florovsky was also a major Orthodox
voice in the ecumenical movement for four decades and he is one of
the founders of the World Council of Churches. This book is a
collection of major theological writings by George Florovsky. It
includes representative and widely influential but now largely
inaccessible texts, many newly translated for this book, divided
into four thematic sections: Creation, Incarnation and Redemption,
The Nature of Theology, Ecclesiology and Ecumenism, and Scripture,
Worship and Eschatology. A foreword by Metropolitan Kallistos Ware
presents the theological vision of Georges Florovsky and discusses
the continuing relevance of his work both for Orthodox theology and
for modern theology in general. The introduction by the Editors
provides a theological and historical overview of Florovsky
theology in teh context of his biography. The book includes
explanatory notes, translation of patrisitc citations and an index.
