Christianity

Lineaments - an outline, feature, or contour of a body or figure, especially of a face. In this culmination of his life's work, the popular Orthodox lay theologian and translator of the Philokalia draws from the depths of tradition the "face" of Christianity as a world religion. Through a critique of the modern scientific and rationalist paradigm, Sherrard seeks to restore the foundations of Christian cosmology and ecology, and to reaffirm the prime importance of sacred symbolism and art. The book includes a creative engagement with non-Christian traditions, with the "metaphysical logic" of Rene Guenon, and with distinctively modern thinkers such as Nietzsche and Jung.
