Orthodox Christian theology is often presented as the direct
inheritor of the doctrine and tradition of the early Church. But
continuity with the past is only part of the truth; it would be
false to conclude that the eastern section of the Christian Church
is in any way static. Orthodoxy, building on its patristic
foundations, has blossomed in the modern period. This volume
focuses on the way Orthodox theological tradition is understood and
lived today. It explores the Orthodox understanding of what
theology is: an expression of the Church's life of prayer, both
corporate and personal, from which it can never be separated.
Besides discussing aspects of doctrine, the book portrays the main
figures, themes and developments that have shaped Orthodox thought.
There is particular focus on the Russian and Greek traditions, as
well as the dynamic but less well-known Antiochian tradition and
the Orthodox presence in the West.
