THE BAPTISM OF JESUS IN THE JORDAN: THE TRINITARIAN AND COSMIC ORDER OF SALVATION, by Killian McDonnell, O.S.B. The feast of the baptism of Jesus is the second most ancient liturgical celebration and is among the major mysteries of Christ. Drawing on Latin, Greek and Syrian sources, Fr. McDonnell shows the Jordan event as the dominant paradigm of Christian baptism in the earliest centuries. The way the early Church used the baptism of Jesus to communicate the central truths of the faith, especially proclaiming the call to holiness - the vocation to participate in the divine life - is still valuable today. 264pp $24.95 Paper (Michael Glazier)

THE BRIDE OF THE LAMB (One of the greatest works of Orthodox theology now available in English), Sergius Bulgakov; translated by Boris Jakim Sergius Bulgakov is thought by many to be the twentieth century's foremost Russian Orthodox theologian. The Bride of the Lamb is widely regarded as Bulgakov's magnum opus and, even more, as one of the greatest works ever produced in the modern Orthodox church. This book is now available in English thanks to esteemed translator Boris Jakim, along with an introduction to Bulgakov and his theological context. For readers new to Russian religious thought, The Bride of the Lamb presents a fresh approach to Christian doctrine. Bulgakov examines issues of ecclesiology and eschatology from a sophiological perspective. This distinctive Russian approach, based on the doctrine of Sophia, the wisdom of God, sees the Creator and creation intimately linked as Divine-humanity. The Bride of the Lamb explores the nature of created beings, the relationship between God and the world, the role of the church, and such eschatological themes as the second coming of Jesus, resurrection and judgment, and the afterlife. 560pp $40.00 Paper (William B.

BYZANTINE THEOLOGY: HISTORICAL TRENDS AND DOCTRINAL THEMES, by John Meyendorf A synthesis of Byzantine Christian thought by an outstanding Orthodox theologian. $15.00 Paper (Fordham)

CHRIST AND THE CHURCH IN ORTHODOX TEACHING AND TRADITION, Archbishop Gregory Afonsky The popular notion of a "churchless Christianity" - of peaceably praying alone with the Savior in the confines of one's own sacred space - forces the question: "Do we need the Church, it's complicated dogmas, canons, services and the ongoing struggle to defend the faith against schism?" In this dogmatic essay, Archbishopj Gregory Afonsky expounds upon thirty years of research and teaching in the field of ecclesiology to demonstrate the divine origin of the Church and its importance in the life of a believer. Countering the sentiment that a Christian is saved independently of community, the author insists that following the footsteps of Jesus Christ entails a journey within His Body. While the Divine life of the Holy Trinity is the foundation of the Church, Archbishop Gregory argues that such a mystical basis cannot be logically defined. In order to comprehend this enigmatic reality, one must participate in the Body of Christ. By participation a believer experiences the nourishment of the Holy Spirit and shares in the Divine Life. Reasoning that the Church is the Kingdom of God in our midst, the ekklesia presupposes visibility, a presence that challenges individualism, relativism and secularism. Indeed it is a manifest bulwark that accosts the very gates of hell. 136pp $11.00 Paper (SVS Press)

CHRIST IN THE EARLY CHRISTIAN HYMNS, Daniel Liderbach From the first days of the church, Christians regularly confessed their faith in Jesus Christ in both theological discussion and in their popular hymns of devotion. After the major church councils from Nice to Chalcedon brought clarification and definition to christological doctrines, the hymns began to express clearly this belief in Jesus as truly God and truly human. Were the new christological doctrines largely deductively developed and imposed by the bishops and theologians in the Councils? Or did they arise from the beginning out of the faith of the Christian community itself as known by its prayers and worship? Father Liderback shows the pre-Nicene hymns inductively kept in tension both the full humanity of Jesus and his more-than-human status. Then during the councils from Nicaea to Chalcedon, the deductive doctrines held sway within the hymn compositions. But the final definition given by Chalcedon encouraged a new period of hymn composition in which humanity and divinity are once again kept in experiential tension according to the "rule of faith" found from the earliest period. This is an important study that revels the powerful and fundamental role that the "rule of faith" in the life of the community played for the development of christological faith in the early church. 176pp $15.00 Paper (Paulist)

THE COUNCILS OF THE CHURCH: A SHORT HISTORY, Norman Tanner, S.J. Everyone recognizes the importance of the popes in the history of the Church. Too often, however, the enduring role of the general (ecumenical) councils of the Church has been overlooked. In this remarkably clear and compact introduction, Norman Tanner, S.J., offers the results of years of intensive study and teaching of the ecumenical councils. Tanner provides a comprehensive history of conciliar teaching, extending from the early and medieval councils to the Second Vatican Council. Tanner's rich analysis is compelling in its own right and indispensable as an aid for reading the conciliar texts themselves, and this concise text is required reading for anyone interested in the history and teachings of the Church. Given recent theological and historical interest in the relationship between pope and council, no theological library will be complete without Tanner's convincing account of the councils' historical accomplishments and their abiding importance in the life of the Chruch. 144pp $20.00 Paper (Herder and Herder)

THE CROSS IN CHRISTIAN TRADITION: FROM PAUL TO BONAVENTURE, edited by Elizabeth A. Dreyer For the past two thousand years, the cross has been a powerful symbol of the Christian faith and an anchor of its symbol system. In this volume, a group of distinguished scholars delves into the theologies and spiritualities of the cross at select moments in the tradition. They examine biblical texts and commentaries, lectionaries, liturgical poetry, sermons, and theological spiritual treatises in: Paul, the early liturgy, Origen, Augustine and Bonaventure. Each chapter provides a window into how particular contexts influenced the interpretation of the cross and how the cross functioned in each unique historical moment. Originally presented at Saint Mary's College, these papers offer a fresh and distinctive approach to the literature on the cross. The authors' historical perspective points to the tradition as a transforming agent for theology and spirituality today. 320pp $21.95 Paper (Paulist)

FLESH OF THE CHURCH, FLESH OF CHRIST: THE SOURCES OF THE ECCLESIOLOGY OF COMMUNION, J.M.R. Tillard, O.P.; translated by Madeleine M. Beaumont How does the ecclesiology of communion go back to the very sources of the great ecclesial tradition? How should we explain that a Christian is never alone, even before God? How should we perceive that the Church is a communion before being a society, a mystery before being a structure? These questions reflect the inner being of the Church that is at the center of Flesh of the Church, Flesh of Christ. Renowned scholar J.-M.R. Tillard defines what the flesh of the Church is for the New Testament and the period of the undivided Church. He enables readers to understand not the structure of exists. Tillard explains that the "flesh of the church" is communion of life for humanity reconciled with the Father and with itself "in Christ." He also shows that through the power of the Spirit and the Word, the Church is the "flesh of Christ" in the osmosis of the sacrificial flesh of the Lord and the concrete life of the baptized, of which the Eucharist is the sacrament. Chapters are "All Linked Together by Salvation: For God, in Communion," "All Joined into One Body, Eucharistic Body, Ecclesial Body," "All taken into the One Sacrifice: The Sacrifice of Christ," and "Flesh of the Chruch, Flesh of Christ." $19.95 Paper (Liturgical Press)

THE FORMATION OF CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY, VOLUME 1: THE WAY TO NICAEA, by John Behr; preface by Andrew Louth This series traces the reflection provoked by Christ's question, "Who do you say that I am? from the earliest days of Christianity to the Seventh Ecumenical Council. No student of theology can avoid the problems tackled in this period. They range from the most fundamental issues, concerning how Christ is known and the standard by which responses to him can be evaluated, to the subsequent reflections regarding his relationship to God and to us. Through original and penetrating analyses of selected figures and controversies, Behr presents not only the history of theological reflection, but a sustained analysis of the essential elements of the resulting theology. This first volume treats the initial three centuries of the Christian era. Part I examines the establishment of normative Christianity on the basis of the tradition and canon of the Gospel, and briefly sketches the portrait of the Scriptural Christ inscribed in the New Testament. Part II analyzes selected figures from the second period, Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr and Ireneaeus of Lyons, considering how they understood Christ to be the Word of God. Part III turns to the third century, treating Hippolytus and the debates in Rome, Origen and his legacy in Alexandria and the Council of Antioch, in a continued examination of Christ as the Word of God. It is these debates that form the background for the controversies and Councils of the following centuries, to be examined in subsequent volumes. 234pp $17.00 Paper (SVS Press)

FROM SACRED BODY TO ANGELIC SOUL: UNDERSTANDING MARY IN LATE MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN EUROPE, Donn Spivey Ellington Through an insightful examination of popular sermons by some of the most famous preachers of the day, Donna Spivey Ellington discusses the importance of Marian devotions to the religious understanding of European Christians in the late medieval and early modern periods. She charts a dramatic shift of emphasis in the public portrayal of the Virgin Mary from the fifteenth through seventeenth centuries. As Europe experienced the impact of printing and increased literacy, the Protestant Reformation, the growing development of individualism and a private sense of self, and changing attitudes towards women, Marian devotion was also transformed. The Church's portrait of the Virgin gradually became focused less on her body and more on her soul. In the late Middle Ages, preachers gloried in Mary's shared flesh with Jesus Christ as his bodily mother. As the one who had given of her immaculate body to form the body of the Son of God, the Virgin possessed a permanent and mystical link with her son that enabled her to participate actively in all aspects of his life and work. She became the source of his suffering body on the cross and of the body of Christ glorified and received in the Eucharistic Host. By the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, however, European religious sensibilities began to be altered. The public articulation of Mary's importance reflects that alteration. Preachers downplayed Mary's role as Jesus's bodily mother and praised her role as "spiritual mother" of Christ, united to him much more closely by shared will and affection than by flesh. In addition, Mary began to be portrayed as silent, distant, controlled and obedient, no longer the public, active, and vocal spokeswoman for the Christian community that she had been in the Middle Ages. This book unlocks the complex structure of late medieval piety and opens doors to understanding early modern Catholic spirituality. 320pp $60.00 Cloth (Catholic University of America)

Fox proposes we reclaim that doctrine of the Trinity as an eminently practical doctrine that challenges Christians and the Christian churches to transforming changes in this new century. 280pp $24.95 Paper (Liturgical Press)

MODERN RUSSIAN THEOLOGY: BUKHAREV, SOLOVIEV, BULGAKOV - ORTHODOX THEOLOGY IN A NEW KEY (The first detailed English introduction to the Russian school of Christian thought), Paul Valliere The Russian school of modern Orthodox theology has made an immense but undervalued contribution to Christian thought. This groundbreaking study introduces the Russian school through the life and thought of three of its greatest thinkers, each representing a generation - Alexsandr Bukharev (1824-1871), Vladimir Soloviev (1853-1901), and Father Sergii Bulgakov (1871-1944). Author Paul Valliere provides biographical sketches and historical background on these Russian-school thinkers. The primary concern of the book, however, is with the thought of each theologian. Working almost exclusively from Russian language primary sources, Valliere explores the many creative ideas devised or adapted by the Russian school, such as the humanity of God, kenotic christology, sophiology, panhumanity, free theocracy, church-and-world dogmatics, and prophetic ecumenism. Offering the first account in English of Bukharev's thought and the most complete analysis of Bulgakov's dogmatic theology, this volume is the best study of Russian theology now available. 456pp $42.00 Hardcover w/dust jacket (William B.

A SOLOVYOV ANTHOLOGY, Vladimir Solovyov; Introduced by Aidan Nichols, O.P.; with a Preface by Cardinal Giacomo Biffi Hailed as "the Russian Newman," the great Eastern theologian, poet and mystic Vladimir Solovyov has been unjustly neglected in the West. More recently however, leading Catholic figures such as John Paul II (in his encyclical Fides et Ratio) and Cardinal Giacomo Biffi (at a recent international conference on Solovyov held in Bologna) have called for a revival of interest in the work of this prophetic figure. Born into the Russian Orthodox Church, Solovyov was a life-long advocate for the authority of the pope, and was received into the Catholic Church toward the end of his life. In his preface to this anthology, Cardinal Biffi writes: "Vladimir Solovyov understood the twentieth century, but the twentieth century has not understood him" This wide-ranging anthology brings together in one volume a representative selection of Solovyov's theological, historical and mystical writings in the hope of introducing this profound Christian thinker to a wider public. It will make a useful contribution to the ecumenical dialogue between East and West called for by the present Holy Father in his encyclical letter Ut Unum Sint. 250pp $27.00 Cloth (The St Austine Press) Not Available at This Time - Delayed
