THE CAMBRIDGE ORTHODOX FORUM: BASIC QUESTIONS

,
Lecture by Metropolitan Kallistos Ware


This lecture by Metropolitan Kallistos Ware on theology is particularly instructive to monks, whether from the East or from the West, reflecting the difference between the Cistercian Fathers with St Bernard on the one hand, and Peter Abelard and the Scholastics on the other, against the more monastic-centred theology of the East and the more university-centred theology of the West.   This is not a simple difference between good and bad because Scholasticism was saved by sanctity, by saints like St Thomas Aquinas, St Bonaventure, Blessed Duns Scotus and St Anthony of Padua.   Nevertheless, it stll suffers from limitations which need to be corrected by the theology of a kind expounded by Metropolitan Kallistos Ware and the liturgical theology of monks like Dom Odo Casel. - D.
