| Abstract | "The book presents the essential stages and contributions of Romanian dogmatic thinking from the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century. Written from a historical and doctrinal perspective, the book aims to be a history of Romanian dogmatic thinking analyzed in the context of the establishment of communism, the intensification of ecumenical dialogue, and postmodern society. The book captures and explains what the author calls the "paradigm change" in Orthodox Dogmatics from the second half of the 20th century, the theological meanings of the renewal of Dogmatics in the context of neopatristic synthesis and the gradual delimitation of the schemes of a Dogmatics influenced by medieval scholasticism. At the same time, the book also presents the influences of medieval scholasticism in Orthodox Dogmatics and the effort of Romanian dogmatists to express a renewed and ecclesial Dogmatics by rediscovering the method, spirit, and ecclesial experience of the Fathers." -- Publisher, page four of cover. |
