Book Reviews

„Lucrarea Fiul Omului în Sfintele Evanghelii. O contribuţie la dezvoltarea hristologiei noutestamentare a constituit, iniţial, proiectul tezei de doctorat a Părintelui Moldovan Andrei Tudor (Ierom. Iosif), susţinută în anul 2016, la Facultatea de Teologie Ortodoxă a Universităţii Babeş-Bolyai, sub îndrumarea Pr. Prof. Univ. Dr. Stelian Tofană, titularul Catedrei de studiul Noului Testament a facultăţii mai sus amintită.

Analizând lucrarea de faţă, fac câteva remarci cu privire la semnificaţia şi importanţa subiectului cărţii, care, cu siguranţă, îl va ajuta pe cititorul „neteolog” să descifreze mai bine meandrele abordării respectivei teme. În ultimul timp, în literatura de specialitate, titlul „Fiului Omului”, singurul pe care Iisus şi L-a împropriat, a căpătat diferite interpretări, mai mult sau mai puţin apropiate de semnificaţia sa originală.”  (din „Prefaţă”)

"This volume with the somewhat ambitious title Migration and Population Politics during War(time) and Peace(time): Central and Eastern Europe from the Dawn of Modernity to the Twentieth Century reflects and builds upon the current debates in the thriving field of migration studies and migration history. It aims to provide an innovative perspective on the regional East European dimension of this phenomenon by discussing the specific migration processes in the area from early modern times to the present."(Excerpt from "Introduction")
