| Summary: |
This volume concentrates on the 'conceptual boundary' through Europe which is determined by Western and Eastern Christianity. The chapters show that the boundary has never been a stable and defined division, but that it was also subject to change and development and a place of encounter and exchange between religions and cultures. 'This volume highlights religion at work through encounters of cultures and civilizations. It showcases religion's transnational nature and its incredible diversity observed in the new context of an integrating Europe. The shift from the conflict perspective to 'encounters of faiths' is refreshing and inspiring.' - Vjekoslav Perica, Adjunct Associate Professor, Department of History, University of Utah, USA. |
