This book explores the relationship between being and time —between ontology and history— in the context of both Christian theology and philosophical inquiry. Each chapter tests the limits of this multifaceted thematic vis-à-vis a wide variety of sources: from patristics (Maximus the Confessor, Gregory of Nyssa) to philosophy (Kant, Kierkegaard, Heidegger) to modern theology (Berdyaev, Ratzinger, Fagerberg, Zizioulas, Yannaras, Loudovikos); from incarnation to eschatology; and from liturgy and ecclesiology to political theology. Among other topics, time and eternity, protology and eschatology, personhood and relation, and ontology and responsibility within history form core areas of inquiry. Between Being and Time facilitates an auspicious dialogue between philosophy and theology and, within the latter, between Catholic and Orthodox thought. It will be of considerable interest to scholars of Christian theology and philosophy of religion.

It is in Christ that time and eternity, history and metaphysics, hold together. This Christological conviction—and the relational understanding of reality that it entails—unites Andrew T.J. Kaethler and Sotiris Mitralexis’s extraordinary collection of essays. By no means do the authors agree on every point. But the relational ontology of love on display in this book flows from a shared, ever-deepening movement into the triune God of history.
Hans Boersma, J.I. Packer Professor of Theology, Regent College
How we perceive reality and comport ourselves depends on our understanding of temporality. In this important volume, an ecumenical group of noteworthy scholars unfolds for the reader the rich implications of this claim for philosophy, theology, and indeed, for everyday life. A splendid achievement and rewarding read!
Jens Zimmermann, Canada Research Professor in Humanities, Trinity Western University
