John Zizioulas is widely recognised as the most significant
Orthodox theologian of the last half century and acclaimed advocate
of ecumenism. From his indepth knowledge of the intellectual
resources of the Church, Zizioulas has argued that the Church
Fathers represent a profound account of freedom and community that
represents a radical challenge to modern accounts of the person.
Zizioulas uses the work of the Fathers to make an important
distinction between the person, who is defined by a community, and
the individual who defines himself in isolation from others, and
who sees community as a threat to his freedom. Zizioulas argues
that God is the origin of freedom and community, and that the
Christian Church is the place in which the person and freedom come
into being. This volume offers a critical appraisal of the theology
of John Zizioulas. Leading Anglican, Reformed, Catholic and
Orthodox international scholars, including Colin Gunton, Nicholas
Loudovikos, Paul McPartlan, Wolfhart Pannenberg and Philip Rosato
present essays which analyse Zizioulas' trinitarian doctrine of
God, and his theological account of the Church as the place in
which freedom and communion are actualised.Many include discussions
of Zizioulas' Being as Communion as well as other lesser known
works, now available in Communion and Otherness. Together, they
represent an unrivalled introduction to the work of this great
theologian.
