| Σύνοψη: | In our rapidly changing post-Hellenistic and post-Christian world, in which the mediating role of ontology has become far from self-evident, the question of which discipline can assume the role of mediation between theology and secular thought has become crucial. The present paper, taking as its point of departure the work of the Romanian writer and monk Nicolae Steinhardt (1912-1989), suggests that modern literature is well equipped to play this role. Advocating a non-theological understanding of universality, literature is likely to provide theology with contextual schemes that might help the latter communicate its message in a postmodern world and thereby cease to address current issues by using an outdated and self-referential language. |
