Book Description:
Addressed to historians of medieval and Byzantine thought, philosophers and theologians, 'Eriugena: East and West' provides an in depth study of how the great Irish scholar, John Scottus Eriugena, bridged the gap between Eastern, Greek speaking Christianity and the Latin West. In these essays, selected from the Eighth International Colloquium of the Society for the Promotion of Eriugenian Studies, 12 scholars not only focus on one crucial exemplar of the history of Christian ecumenism, but also open a fruitful discussion about the contemporary challenges that continue to divide Christian theology, East and West. The first part of the book, 'Historical Background', investigates the documentary evidence of exchanges between the Byzantine Empire and the Carolingian West. Part Two, 'Themes of the East West Encounter', deals with Eriugena's attempt to synthesise Greek and Latin thought and how he sought to resolve differences between East and West. Part Three, 'Eastern Sources and Influences', treats Eriugena's use of the Greek Fathers and makes comparisons between Eriugena and specific Eastern Christian thinkers.
