An English translation of Andre Scrima's 1952 work on Apophatic
Anthropology. Pascalian in essence, the approach departs from the
Augustinian roots of Western Christian theology and develops a
Christian anthropology based on Eastern Orthodoxy. The endeavor of
a human being to understand oneself does not lead, as in the case
of Pascal, to identification with Jesus Christ's suffering, but
further, to an attempt of deification, theosis, in which the main
concept is Incarnation. This attempt opens to man the possibility
to conceive himself as interior to God. Man becomes therefore the
physical and metaphysical bridge between creation and the
uncreated, the only creature that bears the image of God.
