Georges Florovsky and the Russian Religious Renaissance Changing Paradigms in Historical and Systematic Theology

This study offers a new interpretation of 20th-century Russian Orthodox theology by engaging the work of Georges Florovsky (1893-1979), especially his programme of a 'return to the Church Fathers', analysing how Florovsky's evolving interpretation of Russian religious thought, particularly Vladimir Solovyov and Sergius Bulgakov, informed his approach to patristic sources.
