    Motion of Human Nature towards Imago Dei in the Thought of St. Maximus the Confessor
    (Wydawnictwo KUL, 2020) Hupalo, Mariia
    The traumatic experience of the 20th century challenged humanity with the need for a radically new anthropology, free from objectification and exclusivism of various kinds. The phenomenon of dehumanization has become not only an ethical, but an ontological problem: is there any ‘core’ in man that remains unchanged despite all the sufferings that a man can experience. Modern systematic theology has not arrived to the solution of this problem, but St. Maximus the Confessor’s profound understanding of the image of God in man as both ontological, dynamic, and eschatological, can help us build an anthropology that would have a firm ontological basis and would be deeply relational and therefore relevant for the postmodern context.
