Dumitru Staniloae´s Influence on Jürgen Moltmann´s Trinitarian and Ecological Theology
Abstract
Dumitru Stăniloae and Jürgen Moltmann are recognizes as two world-famous theologians, that contribute in an unique way to the ecumenical encounter between the Orthodox and the Evangelical theologies of the 20th century. Stăniloae’s influence on Moltmann’s trinitarian and ecological theology can be considered a constructive presence of the Romanian orthodox tradition in the international discourse. Both Moltmann and Stăniloae promote a perichoretical and trinitarian worldview with direct consequences for the contemporary ecological and ecumenical culture. In our ecumenical century we can consider Stăniloae and Moltmann as two genial theologians that show us in an deep inspirative manner the successful way towards the vivid unity of the Church.
