Sergei Bulgakov and the Search for the Ecumenical Future The Hour is Coming, and is Now Come: Sergei Bulgakov and the Search for the Ecumenical Future by Scott Allan Sharman A Thesis submitted to the Faculty the University of St. Michael’s College and the Theological Department of the Toronto School of Theology In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology awarded by the University of St. Michael’s College © Copyright by Scott Sharman 2014 The Hour is Coming, and is Now Come: Sergei Bulgakov and the Search for the Ecumenical Future Scott Sharman Doctor of Philosophy in Theology University of St. Michael’s College 2014 ABSTRACT This dissertation draws upon the lived and written ecclesiology of Sergei Nikolaevich Bulgakov (1871-1944) in order to make theological and methodological contributions to the current debates surrounding the future of the Christian ecumenical movement. Part I lays the groundwork for the subsequent chapters. It begins with a brief introduction to Bulgakov’s personal history and context, as well as an identification of the most relevant primary and secondary sources on the topics of Church and ecumenism. This is followed by a short survey of the origins and significant highlights of the ecumenical movement in the twentieth century, and an identification of certain challenges which have emerged in the latter part of the century. Part II represents the heart of the study. It sets out to engage in an in-depth examination of the key features of Bulgakov’s ecumenical thought and career. Initial attention is given to both the personal and intellectual influences which shaped Bulgakov’s vision of Christian unity. Bulgakov’s distinctive Sophiology is then reviewed, with particular attention to the way it impacts his understanding of the limits of the Church, his views on the respective roles of the hierarchy and the laity in seeking reunion, his insistence on the prophetic orientation of ecumenical work, and his appreciation for the ecclesiological and ecumenical significance of face to face relationship between separated Christians and Christian communities. Finally, these features are observed in action through a narration of some of Bulgakov’s most notable and representative ecumenical involvements. Part III does the work of positive construction. The lessons learned from Bulgakov’s example serve to lend both theoretical and practical support to those twenty-first century ecumenical impulses which are emphasizing a distinguishable but integrated understanding of the ecumenical aim, a re-recognition of the importance of local and grassroots relationships, renewed attention to the spiritual dimensions of division and the role of spiritual experience as necessary companion to doctrinal dialogue, and an appreciation for the possibility of recourse to sharing the Eucharist as a means to greater communion rather than simply the end goal of the ecumenical task. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My first word of thanks has to go to my family; my parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. Each in their various ways they raised me with a love for God and the Church. They have encouraged me in asking questions about my faith and pursuing the vocation to theological exploration. I would not have begun my studies without the former. I also want to recognize my wife and children, and all the support and sacrifices that they have offered me along the way. I would not have finished without them. I also want to acknowledge the person who awakened my interest in and commitment to the ecumenical task. Margaret O’Gara was a tremendous role model and mentor to me, both academically and personally. As my initial doctoral supervisor, her advice and direction played a major role in giving shape to this particular project. Her untimely death was a sad loss for the Church, and for those who knew her as a friend. I delight in the fact that she is now enjoying her rest in the experience of full communion with God and all the saints for which she worked so tirelessly among us. A word of gratitude goes to Allan Smith as well, who unexpectedly had to step in to direct my research part way through the process. I owe my first introduction to Bulgakov’s thought to Dr. Smith, and have learned a great deal from him in the area of Russian history and theology. He was also very patient with me as I sought to get this project to completion while balancing full time work and full time family life. I also wish to express my appreciation to the staff of the Fellowship of St. Alban and St. Sergius, Oxford UK. Their assistance during my archival research was invaluable. The final thank you is offered to Fr. Sergei Bulgakov, for the way he lived and worked in the Spirit of these inspirational words: “The way towards the reunion of the East and the West does not lead through the Union of Florence or through tournaments between theologians, but through a reunion before the altar.” Contemplata aliis tradere iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ........................................................................................................ iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ........................................................................................................... iv Part 1 – The Hour is Coming ................................................................................................... 1 Chapter 1: Going to the Well ....................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................... 1 1.2 A Potential Resource ............................................................................................................ 5 1.3 A Selected Literature Review ............................................................................................... 7 1.4 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................... 17 Chapter 2: The Ecumenical Golden Age .................................................................................. 20 2.1 The Great New Fact ............................................................................................................ 20 2.2 Ecumenical Highlights ........................................................................................................ 21 2.2.1 The World Council of Churches ................................................................................. 22 2.2.2 Bilateral Dialogues ...................................................................................................... 30 2.2.3 Communion Agreements ............................................................................................. 37 2.3 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................... 41 Chapter 3: The Ecumenical Turning Point ............................................................................... 42 3.1 A Change of Pace ................................................................................................................ 42 3.2 Ecumenical Challenges ....................................................................................................... 44 3.2.1 Wider Ecumenism ....................................................................................................... 44 3.2.2 Bureaucratization ........................................................................................................ 53 3.2.3 Consensus ................................................................................................................... 59 3.2.4 Reception .................................................................................................................... 63 3.3 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................... 67 Part 2 – Bulgakovian Ecumenism ......................................................................................... 68 Chapter 4: An Ecumenical Ecclesiography .............................................................................. 69 4.1 A Product of Time and Place .............................................................................................. 69 4.2 Russian Role Models .......................................................................................................... 70 4.2.1 Aleksei Khomiakov .................................................................................................... 70 4.2.2 Vladimir Soloviev ....................................................................................................... 71 4.3 The Sacred Council of 1917 ............................................................................................... 73 4.4 Revolution and Exile ........................................................................................................... 76 4.5 Paris and St. Serge .............................................................................................................. 80 4.6 The Sophia Controversy ..................................................................................................... 83 4.7 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................... 86

    The Louth Herald The magazine of the Team Parish of Louth 60p JUNE 2014 A celebratery walk of about 2 miles, from Westminster Abbey where we had gathered, to St. Paul's Cathedral, led by a band, on a warm, sunny afternoon began this momentous day of thankgiving and happiness. On reaching the Ca- thedral, all the "1994 Ordinands", retired to the Crypt to robe in albs and white stoles. We then met the Archbishop, Justin Welby, for photographs. As we stood on the steps we were a wall of white. The Archbishop greeted us and chat- ted informally.Photographs over, we were ushered through the three entrences into the Cathedral. I was aware of a kind of roaring noise and unrealistically thought it was a lawn mower, then as it increased, I thought it was an areoplane. On stepping inside the relative darkness after the bright sunshine , I was momentarily blinded but the noise had now reached a crescendo. As I regained my sight, I realized the whole enormous congregation was standing and applauding us. Tears sprang into my eyes. It was overwhelming and the first time that it dawned on me that we were re- garded as pioneers. It was a strangely lonely and emotional walk up the aisle to my seat. I am told the applause lasted about 25 minutes. Twenty years ago at my ordination in Lincoln Cathedral, I had thought that then was the pinacle of our struggle to be accepted on equal terms, but Saturday, 3rd. of May, at St. Paul's was a final aknowledgement.

DeBlasio, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2010 This dissertation takes as its primary task the evaluation of a conflict of paradigms in Russian philosophical thought in the past decade. If until the early nineties Russian philosophers were often guilty of uncritically attributing to their domestic philosophy a set of characteristics that fell along the lines of a religious/secular binary (e.g. literary vs. analytic; continuous vs. ruptured), in recent years the same scholarship is moving away from the nineteenth-century model of philosophy as a “path” or “special mission,” as it has been called by Konstantin Aksakov, Aleksei Khomiakov, Ivan Kireevskii, and later, Nikolai Berdiaev, among others.

  • In January 1991 Gordon Sleight Was Still the Vicar of Crosby with Joanna Anderson As Curate
    In January 1991 Gordon Sleight was still the Vicar of Crosby with Joanna Anderson as Curate. The Youth & Community Worker was Mick Maskell with Pat Newcombe as his assistant. The Parish Clerk was Janice Brader and the Church Wardens were Barbara Scott and Norman Jackson. Tim Savage was PCC Secretary and Steve Barker was PCC Treasurer. Lesley Sleight, the Parish Magazine Editor, recorded that 1991 would see some changes in the magazine as a new team would be taking over during the next few months. Subscriptions remained the same at 15p. The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity was marked with a series of services in the Town Centre Parishes between 18-25 January. The Speaker for the Lent United Services and discussions, scheduled for February and March, would be the Right Reverend David Tustin, the Bishop of Grimsby. Pat Newcombe wrote that the St George’s Credit Union, which was set up during the summer of 1989 with 30 members, now had funds of £2,000, and it should become registered this year. To join this Credit Union a member had to live within the Parish of Crosby or be connected with the work of the Church or Community Department. All members had a say in how the Credit Union operates. A Credit Union was useful for many reasons; it kept local money in the local area. Loans were made from the savings pool and repayments allowed this money to be re-loaned and so on. No one was exploited and interest rates are set by law and are the same for all members.

  • Sophiology As a Theological Discipline According to Solovyov, Bulgakov and Florensky
    109 Izvirni znanstveni članek (1.01) Bogoslovni vestnik 77 (2017) 1,109—116 UDK: 271.2-284 Besedilo prejeto: 9/2016; sprejeto: 3/2017 Karel Sládek Sophiology as a Theological Discipline according to Solovyov, Bulgakov and Florensky Abstract: The article presents one of the themes of theological disputes in the 20th century, specifically the return of the Sophiology into theological consi- derations. God´s Wisdom (Divine Sophia) was particularly topical in the Russi- an Orthodox theology in 19th and 20th centuries; however, it overlapped with Catholic theology. The text is based on Vladimir Solovyov’s, Sergei Bulgakov’s, and Pavel Florensky’s experience with the revelation of God´s Wisdom. Since their experience is the experience with revelation, the Sophiology can be inte- grated into the subjects of spiritual theology. The fundamental doctrinal dis- pute dealt primarily with the concept of Wisdom in relation to the Holy Trinity. As the mystical encounter with Sophia was described as experience with the female aspect of Divinity, it was also important to search the relationship bet- ween Sophia and Virgin Mary. The author thus concludes that sophiology is an essential part of systematic theology. Key words: Vladimir Solovyov, Sergei Bulgakov, Pavel Florensky, Russian theology, sophiology, dogmatic theology, Mariology Povzetek: Sofiologija kot teološka disciplina po Solovjovu, Bulgakovu in Floren- skem Članek predstavlja eno izmed tem teoloških sporov 20. stoletja, in sicer vrnitev sofiologije v teološke razprave. Božja Modrost (Božja Sofija) je bila še posebej obravnavana v ruski pravoslavni teologiji 19. in 20. stoletja. Kljub temu se je prekrivala s katoliško teologijo. Besedilo članka temelji na izkušnji Vladimirja Solovjova, Sergeja Bulgakova in Pavla Florenskega z razodetjem Božje Modrosti.

Reading Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita from the Perspective of Hinduism Radha Balasubramanian, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Mikhail Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita (1966-67)' has been praised highly for both its literary merit and its spiritual significance. Many critical stud- ies explain the complex nature of the interrelationship between the natural and supernatural in the novel. The unexpected roles that otherworldly beings play in the novel, the resulting satire, and the fantastic in the plot create a certain inevi- table puzzlement about the structure and meaning of the novel. Attempts to ex- plain the implications of the spiritual elements underpinning the fantastic span through various belief systems, but given the complexity of Bulgakov's novel, a coherent, conclusive explanation has been elusive.

  • The Ecclesial Humanism of Sergei Bulgakov
    Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies Vol. 60 (2019) Nos. 1–4, pp. 9–41 Neither Radical nor Liberal: The Ecclesial Humanism of Sergei Bulgakov James R. Wood Abstract (Українське резюме на ст. 40) This essay surveys the political theology of Sergei Bulga- kov as it has been interpreted by John Millbank, Aristotle Pa- panikolaou, and Nathaniel Wood. While Millbank sees Bulga- kov in continuity with his own rejection of liberal secularism, Papanikolaou reads Bulgakov as supporting liberal demo- cracy. Wood, however, offers a more nuanced and realistic in- terpretation. Building on Wood’s analysis, this paper draws attention to the ecclesial center in Bulgakov’s social vision. Bulgakov’s reflections on political issues in Russia and the West during the first half of the twentieth century and his transition from “atheist socialism” to “Christian socialism” shows that his thought is neither simply anti-liberal nor straightforwardly pro-liberal and pro-democratic. Rather Bul- gakov’s sophiology and personalism inform a political theolo- gy based on “ecclesial humanism,” a vision of the Church as the “true society” that fulfills all human vocation, and allows for an alternative conception of Christian social action in mo- dern liberal democracies. 10 James R. Wood Introduction Sergei Bulgakov (1871–1944) is widely regarded as one of the most important Eastern Orthodox theologians of the twen- tieth century,1 if not one of the most important theologians in the Christian Church as a whole in the modern period.2 Unfor- tunately, his scholarly contributions remained largely unrecog- nized by Christians in the West until recently.
