- En indføring i Efraim Syrerens åndelige univers
198,95 kr. Efraim Syreren, en åndelig forfatter fra det fjerde århundrede, er på enestående vis et mødested mellem øst og vest, mellem europæisk kristendom på den ene side, og asiatisk og afrikansk kristendom på den anden side.For kristne med en europæisk baggrund er Efraim en forfriskende modvægt til en tradition, der er alt for fokuseret på intellektet – mens han for asiatiske og afrikanske kristne er den store kirkefader og teolog, der kan læses uden et forudgående kendskab til græsk filosofisk tradition.Når Efraim er mindre kendt end andre kirkefædre, skyldes det dels at han skrev på syrisk, dels at han skrev om teologi i poetisk form. Ironisk nok er disse hindringer for udbredelsen af hans skrifter de samme, som gør ham til en så spændende skikkelse i vores tid.Sebastian Brock er en af de førende eksperter i Efraim Syreren. Han giver i denne bog en fin introduktion til Efraims tænkning og åndelige univers, og samtidig indeholder bogen et fyldigt uddrag af tekster fra hans forfatterskab.
