Резюме

Kalin Angelov, “External Knowledge” and how to approach it? The Pattern of St. Basil and St. Gregory of Nazianz. The author offers a new look at the views of the two Cappadocian fathers regarding ancient culture and education. Here he compares a number of superimpositions, prejudices, and opinions among modern believers toward secular education with the views of St. Basil and St. Gregory. The latter turn out to be quite progressive not only for their time, but even for the traditionally minded believers in Orthodox countries.
