| description | It is the aim of this article to sketch the portrait of Fr. Dumitru Stăniloae as
a public theologian. Starting with his biography and continuing with his
intellectual and spiritual development will become clear that Fr. Dumitru
Stăniloae was a theologian profoundly involved in the cultural, intelectual and
spiritual life of the Romanian society of the twentieth century. We will observe
the fact that the uniqueness of Dumitru Stăniloae in the tapestry of Romanian
theological thought is given, among many other things, by his robust interaction
with different traditions than his own, an interaction that roots his
interdisciplinary, dialogical approach to theology. We will also focus on the way
Stăniloae is a theologian who rediscovers the vital connection between theology
and spirituality. Moreover, we will understand that there are also many elements
in Stăniloae’s theological thought that could be taken in account in a
formulation of new ways of thinking about the Church and her mission in third
millennium Romania. |
