Georges Florovsky
This is the final version of the article. Available from the publisher via the link in this record.Two articles: Father Georges Florovsky: a biography (pp. 86-93) and Florovsky’s Ecumenism (pp. 94-97)If the greatness of a theologian is determined by his influence, Georges Florovsky is
undoubtedly the greatest Eastern Orthodox theologian of the 20th century, as indeed is often
claimed. His theological programme and method of a spiritual return to, and renewal in, the
Byzantine heritage (the Greek Patristic corpus, the monastic and liturgical tradition) – in line
with the well-worn slogan, ‘neo-patristic synthesis’ – has increasingly become the dominant
paradigm for the Orthodox theology and ecumenical activity. As a teacher, his students included
some of the best-known names in modern Orthodox theology: Father John Meyendorff
(1926-92), Father John Romanides (1928-2001) and Metropolitan John (Zizioulas)
of Pergamon (b. 1931). In addition, he mentored others who are also now key figures
in modern Orthodox thought: Archimandrite Sophrony Sakharov (1896-1993),
Vladimir Lossky (1903-58), Father Alexander Schmemann (1921-83)
and Metropolitan Kallistos (Ware) of Diokleia (b. 1934

Pneumatology
This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from Oxford University Press via the DOI in this recordThis chapter seeks to show that mysticism is not about the rarefied experience of certain
spiritual athletes but the Holy Spirit’s ordinary or common call to transformation of every
Christian into a potentially extraordinary ‘second Christ’. The author contends that in
Christian teaching the Spirit hides himself but in this age is made known in the faces of
transformed Christians—saints and mystics—as little ‘christs’. The Spirit is said to be the
author of the Body of Christ in which Christians are called to put on Christ, living lives
headed by the Spirit, as ‘partakers of the divine nature’ (2 Pet. 1: 4). Examples are drawn
from the mystical and liturgical tradition in Christian East and West: Symeon the New
Theologian, Seraphim of Sarov, Teresa of Avila, John of the Cross, as well as in
baptismal and eucharistic theology and especially in the work of Augustine
