Paper Back. Condizione: New. On our bookshelves are several Orthodox works translated from French into English. Wichita State University Professor of History Anthony Gythiel has labored over the years to present the mind of these authors so that we might benefit from their wealth and wisdom. His most recent project, The Compassion of God, by Father Boris Bobrinskoy (Dean of St. Sergius Institute in Paris) focuses on the inseparable themes of compassion and suffering, widely discussed throughout patristic literature. Bobrinskoy points out that compassion means a ''suffering with'' and that ''the Father suffers from a love wound'' inflicted by the suffering of His own Son sent to die for ''this world He 'so loved.''' Put in applicable context, we must offer our own suffering and need for forgiveness to God so that He can ''heal the wound of our own heart.'' Father Bobrinskoy's is a balanced life and thought -- ''irrigated by three springs: the liturgical tradition, the philocalic tradition of prayer of the heart and the biblical and theological tradition of the church fathers.'' While he admits there remains an enormous amount of work ''to be done in Orthodoxy in order to give worship, the liturgy, and the Eucharist their central place as the axis of the church,'' he also exhorts us to ''lead the good fight on all fronts at once, for the future of the Church, of the faith, and of theology and give witness to these beyond the canonical borders of Orthodoxy.''.

Paper Back. Condizione: New. In contrast to psychology, which justifies anger and aggressiveness as 'natural' human tendencies, Evagrius Ponticus castigates their 'unnatural' outcome: 'No other evil makes man in particular as much like a demon as anger.' Where spiritual life elevates our nature to the angelic plane, anger drives us downward toward the 'bestial' state. Drawing on his knowledge of Evagrius's fourth-century writings, Bunge renders this great 'desert philosopher's' teachings on anger both accessible and applicable to modern readers. When Evagrius describes troubled dreams, obsessive thoughts, and other consequences of anger, his paramount concern lies with their impact on prayer: 'The man who stores up injuries and resentments and yet fancies he prays might as well draw water from a well and put it in a cask that is full of holes.' Evagrius demonstrates how an angry person's prayer leads to idolatry (we turn from God to contemplate the face of the one who has offended us), even heresy. To heal this illness of the soul, vice must be replaced with its opposite virtue - love, in the form of humility and meekness. With a keen grasp of scriptural allegory, Bunge unpacks Evagrius's Old Testament models of 'warlike' meekness, especially David and Moses. Here is 'neither a weak yielding, nor.the reckless playing out of one's superiority and strength, but rather.submission of one's self, so that the other might have life.' 148 pp.

Aggiungi al carrelloPaper Back. Condizione: New. The Philokalia is a collection of texts complex in origin and transmission, written over a period of a thousand years and assuming of its readers an intimate familiarity with its vocabulary and presuppositions. Orthodox Spirituality and the Philokalia is perhaps the only book entirely devoted to describing the essential elements of the tradition that gave birth to the Philokalia and then nourished its teaching generation after generation. Historical sections begin and end the book, offering a succinct outline of Orthodox spirituality as it relates to what Deseille calls 'the philocalic tradition,' from St. Anthony the Great up to the present day. The concluding discussion highlights the fragmented but fascinating presence of that tradition in the Christian West.

Paper Back. Condizione: New. A systematic presentation of the thought of the major Fathers and spiritual luminaries of the Christian East on the whole spectrum issues related to the spiritual life: the nature of God, cosmology, anthropology, the nature and means of repentance, purification and salvation, the virtues, stages of prayer, and contemplation. Take the ''systematic'' in the sub-title very seriously. This tome offers a thorough introduction to the world of eastern Christian spirituality, its terms, connections, and connotations, in which the edifice of all Christian belief is founded. Spidlik's Germanic rigor does no harm to this outline, and in fact reveals an inner logic in a tradition that many call ''mystical'' in order to avoid the labor of close examination. Spidlik is among the greatest living patristic scholars, and his careful, methodical approach makes the staggering range of material navigable. The fifty-four page bibliography of primary and secondary sources (for which the translator took many months to supply, when possible, available English editions) is a remarkably rich resource in itself. 473 pp.

Paper Back. Condizione: New. The theology of the icon included more than the basic theory of the transfiguration of beauty and the sanctification of art. It is a fundamental element in the entire body of Orthodox Tradition. The Theology of the Icon is the most comprehensive introduction available to the history and theology of the icon, and is the standard text upon which most modern studies of iconography are based, providing the reader with a deep and serious approach to the mystery of the sacred image. It surveys the development of the sacred art of the Christian East from its beginnings in catacomb art through the iconoclastic controversies of the eighth and ninth centuries. It includes an analysis of the flowering and development of early Russian iconography, tracing its later influences and the state of the art today. Drawing especially on the Russian Orthodox tradition, the author studies a large number of texts in great detail. The result is a book that will enable the reader to appreciate the Orthodox icon with an open heart. 528 pp.
