Freedom and Personality in the Theology of Maximus the Confessor: A Modern Question to a Church Father
Knežević, Romilo
If we accept that the Fathers are ‘the eternal category and criterion of truth’, is it not the case that this major methodological contention a priori and in a radical manner determines our reading of patristic texts? It seems that Florovsky’s neopatristic synthesis, as a methodological paradigm, does not envisage a possibility of a critical reading of the Fathers. Although Florovsky talks about the ‘new creative act’, his vision of creative theology focuses entirely on the exegesis of the ‘western religious tragedy’ and never seems to accept a possibility of a critical approach to the Fathers.
