It discusses the enduring teachings of important Orthodox Christian intellectuals of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Leading contemporary scholars analyze these thinkers' views on the nature and purpose of law and authority, the limits of rule and obedience, the care of the needy and innocent, the ethics of war and violence, and the separation of church and state, among other themes. A diverse and powerful portrait of Orthodox Christian legal and political thought, this volume underscores the various ways Orthodox Christian intellectuals have shaped modern debates over the family, the state, religion, and society. The book concentrates on Russian philosophers Vladimir Soloviev (1853-1900) and Vladimir Lossky (1903-1958); Russian theologian Nicholas Berdyaev (1874-1948); Russian nun and social reformer Mother Maria Skobtsova (1891-1945); and Romanian theologian Dumitru St?niloae (1903-1993).Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmContributor: John Witte Jr. (Edited by), Frank Alexander (Edited by), Paul Valliere (Introduction by)Genre: Law & PoliticsTopic: Philosophy & SpiritualityAuthor: John Witte Jr.Release Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
