Summary
Dorothea Wendebourg presents ten essays published in various places between 1984 and 1998. These essays, which have now been arranged according to subject, cover a wide span of time and history. They focus mainly on the Byzantine Middle Ages and the Reformation, but there is also an essay on an Early Church subject and discussions on modern ecclesiastical and theological history. In all the articles, Dorothea Wendebourg deals with subjects which are important for the ecumenical dialog between Eastern and Western churches and among Western churches as well. Thus beyond the relevance of current discussions she examines the feasibility of the historical foundations on which some of these dialogs are based.
