Latin theologian but also demonstrates the very nature of theological consensus in ecumenical dialogue, froma referential starting point of the ancient and great Fathers. This collection exemplifies how once, the Latin and Byzantine churches—from a deep communion of the faith that transcended linguistic, cultural and intellectual differences—sang the same harmonious song of the beauty of Christ.
The papers in this collection were initially delivered at the Orthodox Readings ofAugustine Conference from June 14-16, 2007 at Fordham
University as part of the Orthodox Christian Studies Program.
The engagement of the Latin and Byzantine theological traditions ofoldformed the strongest pillar of the Oecumenical faith. It is a delight to see it set up straight again in this current and lively collection ofessays.
— John McGuckin, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY This is a magnificent contribution to the current trends in patristic "receptionhistory," and no less a boon to ecumenical understanding.
— Sarah Coakley, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE This is an ambitious and rewarding volume. And singular! These original and learned essays explore little known aspects ofEastern Christian thought and offer fresh insight into the reception and appraisal ofAugustine in the East in medieval times and today, as a unique contribution to contemporary theological scholarship.
