Theology Open to Philosophy: The First Orthodox Theologian, Myrrha Lot-Borodine, and the Limits of Orthodoxy
Abstract
The topic of the paper is Myrrha Lot-Borodine, the first Orthodox female theologian, and her attitude to unorthodox ideas. The first part of the article shows the efforts of Lot-Borodine to define the Eastern Christian doctrine and radically distinguish it from the Western branches of Christianity, and the second presents an unprecedented intellectual-spiritual rapport, mutual recognition and intimacy between the Russian theologian and the unorthodox philosopher Semyon Frank, who not only declared his extra-confessionality, but also fundamental freedom in the face of the theological doctrines established. The paper therefore juxtaposes two aspects of the creative personality of the first Orthodox female theologian – theological and philosophical or – the orthodox and the unorthodox.
