History and Creativity in Fr. George Florovsky's Theology

Abstract

Roussina Torosyan, History and Creativity in Fr. George Florovs-ky's Theology. The article aims to present the theological understanding of Fr. Florovsky on history and time. А different creative perspective is discovered, in which history can be theologically studied, based on the testimonies of the father. History is revealed in a much more dynamic and graceful way. The importance of Divine providence is shown, for the correct understanding and interpretation of God-man history. The importance of the human per-son for the theology of history is emphasized. The creative and hypostatic parameters of time, the connection between time and love, according to the theology of the personality, are considered. An attempt is made to apply the anthropic principle to the theology of history in order to discover its graceful and Eucharistic fabric. The connection is made between the transcendent meaning of history and the goodness of its nature. History itself is linked to creativity, or is seen as creativity, as bequeathed by the father, based on the Divine Revelation and Will in time.
