Polis, Ontology, Ecclesial Event. Engaging with Christos Yannaras' Thought, 2018
Cambridge: James Clarke & Co, 2018

However, until recently the English-speaking scholar did not have first-hand access to the main bulk of his work: in spite of the relatively early English translation of his The Freedom of Morality (1984), most of his books appeared in English fairly recently - such as Person and Eros (2007), Orthodoxy and the West (2006), Relational Ontology (2011) or The Schism in Philosophy (2015). In this volume, chapters shall examine numerous aspects of Yannaras' contributions to Orthodox theology, philosophy and political thought, based on his relational ontology of the person, later popularised in the Anglophone sphere by John Zizioulas. From political theology to Heidegger and the philosophy of language, from Yannaras' critique of religion to the patristic grounding of the theology of the person and from Orthodoxy to the West, this volume comprises a panorama of Christos Yannaras' transdisciplinary contributions.

Long before Jean-Luc Marion's God without Being, Christos Yannaras was arguing for a retrieval of Dionysian apophaticism as a corrective to the onto-theological trajectory of philosophical thought. For this reason and more, Yannaras is one of the most important Orthodox thinkers of the twentieth century, and perhaps the most understudied, in spite of the fact that his work is now available in Norman Russell's excellent English translations. This collection of essays offers critically appreciative engagement with Yannaras's unique insights into contemporary discussions on political, theological, and philosophical questions. For students and scholars looking for a perspective on a variety of themes that disrupts the status quo, this is a must-read book.

Although Christos Yannaras has been one of the most important contemporary Orthodox thinkers for many decades, systematic engagement with his work outside Greece has only recently begun through the increasing availability of his books in translation. The publication of this brilliant collection of essays analysing his thinking in the fields of political theory, philosophy and theology is most opportune – a landmark in the reception of Yannaras' thinking.
--Norman Russell, Honorary Research Fellow, St Stephen's House, Oxford
This symposium, put together by Sotiris Mitralexis, is the first comprehensive attempt to discuss the wide-ranging work of Christos Yannaras, embracing the philosophical, epistemological, ethical, and political aspects of his work, all undergirded by his relational ontology of persons. It is by no means uncritical, but in a positive vein, and should lead to a wider engagement with Yannaras' thought in the English-speaking world.
