The Cosmic Liturgy: The Universe According to Maximus the Confessor (Communio Books)
by Hans Urs von Balthasar
Category: Religion

This book presents a powerful, attractive, religiously compelling portrait of the thought of a major Christian theologian who might, for this book, have remained only an obscure name in the handbooks of patrology. It is based on an intelligent and careful reading of Maximus's own writings. Here the history of theology has become itself a way of theological reflection.
