International conference organized by the Bulgakov Research Centre at the University of Fribourg (Switzerland) with the Orthodox Christian Studies Center, Fordham University (NY) and the Volos Academy for Theological Studies (Greece), under the patronage of Rowan Williams, Master of Magdalene College and former Archbishop of Canterbury.
Sergii Bulgakov (16th/28th July 1871 – 13th July 1944) is one of the preeminent theologians of the 20th century. The international conference on the occasion of his 150th birthday aims to promote the reception of his work in Eastern and Western academic life. The conference wants to explore Bulgakov’s contribution to meeting the challenges of the modern world and to build bridges between East and West. The colloquium will bring young researchers from different theological disciplines and different ecclesiastical traditions into conversation with established Bulgakov specialists. The official language of the conference will be English.
