Early religious writings, 1903-1909, Florensky, Pavel

This volume contains eight important religious works written by Florensky in the first decade of the twentieth century, now translated into English--most of them for the first time. Splendidly interweaving religious, scientific, and literary themes, these essays showcase the diversity of Florenskys broad learning and interests. Including reflections on the sacraments and explorations of Russian monastic culture, the volume concludes with The Salt of the Earth, arguably Florenskys most spiritually moving work.
