Church, papacy, and schism: A theological enquiry

Philip Sherrard

Society for Promoting Christia

In this culmination of his life's work, Philip Sherrard draws from the depths of the Orthodox tradition to reveal the 'face' of Christianity as a world religion. Through a critique of the modern scientific and rationalist paradigm, he seeks to restore a Christian cosmology and reaffirms the importance of sacred symbolism and art. The book includes a creative engagement with non-Christian traditions, with the 'metaphysical logic' of the popular esotericist, Ren Gunon, and with distinctive modern writers such as Nietzsche and Jung.

<p>The union of the Churches is one of the crucial issues of our time. Yet it is often forgotten that any discussion about it must begin with an understanding of what the Church itself is. Before one can talk of healing the schism, one must know what lies at its root. This book focuses on such central questions. It is a unique and unprecedented contribution to the understanding of the different developments of the two major sections of the Christian Church, the Catholic and the Orthodox. Opening with a succinct, penetrating exposition of the essential reality and meaning of the Church and of the episcopate's function within it, Philip Sherrard goes on to trace the emergence in the East and West of differing ecclesiologies, each in its turn determining a different form of Church government. In particular, he shows how the theory and practice of the papacy are the product of a conception of the Church which became, and still is, dominant in the West. Yet this conception, and the corresponding conception in the Orthodox world, are themselves both rooted in deeper theological differences, Christological and trinitarian. The book concludes with a brilliantly illuminating analysis of these differences which, because they lie behind the disunion of the Churches, must consequently constitute the main focus of any fruitful ecumenical dialogue. This third edition of Church, Papacy, and Schism has a new Preface by Vincent Rossi which assesses Sherrard's contribution to the question of the schism and its healing in the light of present ecumenical dialogue.</p>

This is a new edition of a pioneering book in which the author traces the ecological crisis back to what he believes is its true origin: the incremental replacement of a participatory and sacramental understanding of creation with the more detached scientific mentality that predominates today. Sherrard believes that by accepting this materialistic, mechanistic worldview we are contributing to our own dehumaniszation - with drastic consequences for the natural world. 'Through his sense of the sacred, through his emphasis upon the visionary intellect, and through his acute perception of the ecological crisis, Philip Sherrard is truly a prophet for our present age, a messenger whose winged words are addressed not so much to the twentieth century in which he lived as to the twenty-first century that is now unfolding.'
