Recenzii
This book is an extraordinarily rich articulation and defense of Orthodox scholasticism ... Plesteds profoundly erudite study charts an exciting and compelling course
M. Plesteds Orthodox Readings on Aquinas ... deserves to take the succession of Losskys book [Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church] as setting a new paradigm regarding the identity and inner coherence of the Orthodox tradition
Marcus Plested has written a very important book ... finely researched and winsomely written survey ... Applying the technique of what he calls multiple perspective to the two figures who serve as the opposing archetypes of the East and West, Plested opens the study with two fascinating chapters, the first on Thomas Aquinas and his reception of the Greek East, the second on Gregory Palamas and his reception of the Latin West
His book is both a revealing historical study of Orthodox attitudes to Aquinas and the West, and a significant contribution to ecumenical dialogue between Orthodox East and Latin West, which, despite Kipling, have met in the past and could do so again to their mutual profit.
an important theological contribution, a clarion call for the Orthodox Church to be herself rather than to be defined as merely the opposite of all things Western
brilliant
a significant and much needed study
[a] very fine book
magnifcent book... The story the author tells is fascinating and holds many surprises for theologians of both Eastern and Western traditions.
this elegantly written book is a valuable work of synthesis that will draw the attention of the wider theological world to the inadequacy of assuming that the differences between Eastern and Western Christianity can be thought of in terms of simple contrasts.
