Sheptytsky Institute Graduate Presents Book on Eastern Catholic Theology to Patriarch Sviatoslav
During last week’s visit of Patriarch Sviatoslav to the Sheptytsky Institute, his Beatitude was presented with a copy of the newly released collection of essays Eastern Catholic Theology in Action: Essays in Liturgy, Ecclesiology, and Ecumenism. This collection is the first volume in a new series, Eastern Catholic Studies and Texts, published by Catholic University of America Press.
The two editors of the volume, Deacon Cyril Kennedy and Fr. Andrew Summerson, both have deep ties to the Sheptytsky Institute. Deacon Cyril studied at the Sheptytsky Institute from 2008 to 2013, and has been the editor of Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies, since 2017. Fr. Andrew is Assistant Professor of Greek Patristics, and has taught at the Sheptytsky Institute since 2021.
During his presentation, Deacon Cyril highlighted how the volume builds on the theological work of Fr. Peter Galadza, to whom it is dedicated. This is expressed in the breadth of contributions from a variety of theologians, historians, canonists, liturgists and other scholars, who represent the various Eastern Catholic Churches, the Roman Catholic Church, and several Orthodox Churches.
More information is available also at our previous post featuring a Q&A CUA blogpost: Eastern Catholic Theology in Action: Essays in Liturgy, Ecclesiology and Ecumenism — Sheptytsky Institute.
The book is available for purchase through the CUA Press website, and on Amazon. To hear Deacon Cyril’s presentation to Patriarch Sviatoslav click here.
