Essays by four well-known historians and theologians on the
interaction of Orthodox faith and secular culture, Hellenism,
Russian, and American. Fr. Leon Contos describes the challenges of
"translating" Orthodox and Byzantine hymnology, liturgy, art and
architecture into English for the American Church. Sir Dimitri
Obolensky explores the interaction of Byzantine Orthodoxy once it was
adopted by Russia. Eva Catafygiotou Topping examines the status and
treatment of women in Orthodox theology, hymnology, and practice,
calling for renewal and revision. Speros Vryonis presents how the
early Christian Church developed its theology as it interacted with
Hellenistic Culture.
