Book Description
Originally published in 1965, Evdokimov's Orthodoxy presents a synthesis of the essential elements of Orthodox traditions as they appear throughput Church history - revealing the fruit born from the Russian diaspora in Western Europe and the interface of Orthodoxy with both the Christian and atheist West. Evodokimov quotes the 'Father' in order to bring their wisdom to bear on the modern spirit and in modern discourse. Rooting things in the anthropological teaching that 'God became human so that humans might became God,' Evdokimov considers asceticism, mysticism, ecclesiology, the faith of the Church, the prayer of the Church, and Eschaton or 'Last Things.' In his preface to the 1979 edition, Olivier Clément wrote that Evdokimov's descriptions of the Last Things show that the 'eschatological process is already at work' and that 'the Parousia will not be the return of Christ into the world but the "passing over" of the world into Christ ... Evdokimov appeals to a saintliness that is both kenotic and creative, humble but capable of radiating life into all the complexity of history ... [He speaks] to all who desire not accommodations between churches, whether diplomatic or whatever people are willing to settle for, but "the centre where the Lines converge."' Book jacket.

The Meaning of Icons

Pages : 236
Book Description
"The nature of the icon cannot be grasped by means of pure art criticism, nor by the adoption of a sentimental point of view. Its forms are based on the wisdom contained in the theological and liturgical writings of the Eastern Orthodox Church and are imtimately bound up with the experience of the contemplative life. The present work is the first of its kind to give a reliable introduction to the spiritual background of this art. The introduction into the meaning and language of the icons by Ouspensky imparts to us in an admirable way the spiritual conceptions of the Eastern Orthodox Church which are often so foreign to us, but without the knowledge of which we cannot possibly understand the world of the icon." -- Back cover.
