The Influence of Martin Heidegger's Fundamental Ontology on the Orthodox Personalism of Twentieth Century

Abstract

The paper analyses different aspects of influence of Heidegger's philosophic works on the theology and religious philosophy of XX century. Due to involvement of categorical apparatus of fundamental ontology, works of Greek philosopher Christos Yanaras and Metropolitan John (Zizioulas) have made it possible to study the anthropological and social sides of the theological heritage of Eastern Church deeper. Author points out the conceptual resources of this heritage and suggests the idea of possible mutual enrichment of current philosophiec and theological discourse.
