Theology in the Russian Diaspora: Church, Fathers, Eucharist in Nikolai Afanas'ev (1893-1966)

By: Aidan Nichols

Price: $49.50

Publisher: Cambridge University Press: December 2008

Seller ID: 20110104182900

ISBN: 0521091470

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

The author at the centre of this study, Russian priest-theologian Nikolai Nikolaevich Afanas'ev, was perhaps the most influential thinker about the Church Russia has produced. In Aidan Nichols's careful evaluation, he emerges as a key figure in the rapprochement of Christian East and West, and most notably of the Orthodox and Catholic churches. Nichols illustrates how Afanas'ev has been influential in two key respects: first of all in his conviction that the Eucharist constitutes the foundation of the whole Church; and secondly in his contribution to an Orthodox understanding of the role of th...

Lovely Like Jerusalem: The Fulfillment of the Old Testament in Christ and the Church

Binding: Paper Back

Aidan Nichols is after the heart of Israel in this illuminating exposition of the Old Testament. To quote Hans Urs von Balthasar, the Church 'does not want its praise of God to derive simply and solely from the written word, but from the mind and heart of the Jews at prayer, from those who first formed the words, so that it can embrace them in its living tradition.' Taking his title from a verse in Song of Songs ('You are beautiful as Tirzah, my love, lovely, like Jerusalem'), Nichols first gives an incisive overview of the Old Testament (the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings) followed by ...

By: Aidan Nichols

Price: $17.95

Publisher: Ignatius Press: December 2013

Seller ID: 148799

The Church is a mystery. Believers who want to enter more deeply into that mystery will reflect on the Church's basic characteristics, the marks of the Church: what it means for the Church to be one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. Non-Catholics and nonbelievers looking to appreciate how Catholics regard the Church also will desire to understand these marks. In this book, renowned Dominican theologian Father Aidan Nichols explores the Church's characteristics. Drawing on insights from four theological masters--Henri de Lubac, Jean Tillard, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Charles Journet--Father Nic...

Conciliar Octet: A Concise Commentary on the Eight Key Texts of the Second Vatican Council

By: Aidan Nichols

Price: $16.95

Publisher: Ignatius Press: October 2019

Seller ID: 170025

ISBN: 1621642860

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

A lively debate continues in the Roman Catholic Church about the character of the teaching provided by the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). Did it represent a decisive rupture with previous doctrine, or the continuation of its earlier message under new conditions? Much depends on whether the Council texts are read in the light of subsequent events, which shook and sometimes smashed the life, worship and devotion of traditional Catholicism - rather than considered for themselves, in their own right as documents with a pre-history that historians can know.

Mysterium Paschale : The Mystery of Easter

Price: $24.95

Publisher: Ignatius Pr: October 2000

Seller ID: 172773

ISBN: 0898708044

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

Von Balthasar probes the mysteries of Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter in terms of a threefold movement of going to the Cross, going to the dead, and going to the Father, and of the self-abnegation of God the Son he finds in Holy Saturday -- the descent into hell -- the extremity of such self-abnegation, and thus the ultimate revelation of the love of God. A meditation filled with the sense of awe and beauty appropriate to the subject. 297 pp.

Mystical Theologian: The Work of Vladimir Lossky

By: Aidan Nichols, O.P.

Price: $34.95

Publisher: Gracewing Publishing: January 2017

Seller ID: 146001

ISBN: 0852449046

Binding: Paper Back

Condition: New

Vladimir Nikolaevich Lossky, born in 1903, was not only seminal in the development of Orthodox theology in its Diaspora after the Russian Revolution, and a major figure in twentieth-century European theological history, but also one of those whose work can inspire a serious Christian life. This book is not so much preoccupied by 'placing' Lossky within the world of patristic scholarship or the history of Russian religious thought, but rather, on Lossky's substantive spiritual teaching - and, accordingly, that of the teachers, especially ancient and mediaeval, he commended. Its principal int...
