Professional theologians have long recognized Fr Dumitru Staniloae as the most influential and creative Romanian theologian of our century. A pioneer in his country's religious renaissance, he has fought for almost half a century to free theology from a routine scholasticism, and spirituality from mere sentimentality. Yet in the West Staniloae has been known more by reputation that by his writings themselves, which for the most part have appeared only in Romanian. This English translation makes his work available to a wider audience for the first time. In a fresh and masterly synthesis, rooted in the tradition of the Greek Fathers yet open to the legitimate concerns of contemporary Christian thought, Staniloae gives a dynamic presentation of the Orthodox doctrine of the Trinity as the basis of ecclesiology and anthropology. He assumes a balanced theological framework the totality of creation, the world and human culture by referring it to its ultimate goal: restoration and transfiguration.
