Orthodox Readings of Augustine

This book not only presents Eastern Orthodox readings of the great Latin theologian, but also demonstrates the very nature of theological consensus in ecumenical dialogue, from a 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 from the same page a harmonious song of the beauty of Christ. Contributors are: Lewis Ayres, John Behr, David Bradshaw, Brian E. Daley, George E. Demacopoulos, Elizabeth Fisher, Reinhard Flogaus, Carol Harrison, David Bentley Hart, Joseph T. Lienhard, Andrew Louth, Jean-Luc Marion, Aristotle Papanikolaou, and David Tracy

George E. Demacopoulos is Assistant Professor of Historical Theology at Fordham University and author of Five Models of Spiritual Direction in the Early Church. Aristotle Papanikolaou is an Associate Professor of Theology in the Theology Department and Co-Founding Director of the Orthodox Christian Studies Program at Fordham University.
