Abstract

Abstract Chapter 14 presents the current state of the discussion on this topic by paying attention to one of the most influential philosophical and theological movements in contemporary Orthodox thought—the Neopatristic synthesis. The Neopatristic synthesis is an approach to the development of patristic thought in the contemporary world and its application to different branches of knowledge, including science. According to Fr. George Florovsky, science has an imperfect character because knowledge of the empirical world is possible only from the theological point of view. The chapter also discusses some contemporary proposals of the Neopatristic synthesis, including from Alexei Nesteruk, Sergey Khoruzhy, and others.
