Abstract

Reflecting on the position each of these domains, Philosophy and Theology, had in the past, we have considered that we need to reconnect from the last step. The Romanian Orthodox university theology long felt the need for extensive and in-depth dialogue with university philosophy. Friendships close and full of usefulness between theologians and philosophers there certainly has long been, but an organized dialogue on precise topics and in a long-term strategy of rapprochement between the two areas of reflection is precarious - at least for Romanian intellectuals - even if some meetings were held in this regard over time.
