Résumé
--
The notions of person (or hypostasis) and nature (or essence) are basic notions of Trinitarian theology, Christology, anthropology and Christian spirituality. Progressively and painstakingly elaborated - the concepts themselves and their relations - throughout the first six centuries, they have been at the heart of controversy and theological dialogues for as long as we can remember. Almost all the disagreements and agreements concerning faith have challenged their definitions and their balance or imbalance. Even today, these notions remain at the heart of theological discussions between Christians in quest of unity, whether in dialogues between the Orthodox Church and Catholics or Protestants on the question of 'Filioque', or the dialogue between the Orthodox Church and the non- Chalcedonian Churches about the person and the natures of Christ or the debate sparked off by the Personalist theories of certain representatives of Greek neo-Orthodox movements who - rightly or wrongly - mean to counterbalance the essentialism of Latin theology and the pietism of certain forms of Orthodox spirituality. The studies assembled in this volume are major contributions to the various dimensions of contemporary inter-Christian and inter-Orthodox dialogue and some of them, written several years ago (updated for this edition), are cited regularly as works of reference in their domain. Despite the critical facet of the texts, we find a profound exploration of the concepts involved beyond their committed and circumstantial aspects: a theological reflection of universal relevance likely to interest all Christians who wish to deepen their faith.
