Union and Distinction in the Thought of St. Maximus the Confessor
Union
and Distinction in the Thought of St Maximus the Confessor presents the
writings of a key figure in Byzantine theology in the light of the
themes of unity and diversity. The principle of simultaneous union and
distinction forms the core of Maximus' thought, pervading every area of
his theology. It can be summarized as: Things united remain distinct and
without confusion in an inseparable union. As Melchisedec Törönen
shows, this master theme also resonates in contemporary theological and
philosophical discussions.
