ФЕНОМЕН ЕКУМЕНЕ И ТЕОЛОГИЈА КАО ОБРАЗОВАЊЕ – ДЕВЕТНАЕСТ ТЕЗА О РЕЛАТИВНОЈ ДРУГОСТИ
THE PHENOMENON OF ECUMENIA AND THEOLOGY AS EDUCATION – NINETEEN THESES ON RELATIVE OTHERNESS

Summary/Abstract: If the oikoumene is a metaphor for the Other and its figurations of strangeness, and if Christian theology is primarily a dialogical principle of perichoretic cooperation between two radical magnitudes — the transcendent and the immanent, Otherness and being — then education (ger. Bildung) in the Christological register (once again) is a dia-ontological event of the Other. Accordingly, one could preliminarily conclude that if the oikoumene is, above all, a metaphor for the Other and Otherness as a benevolent and indisputable strangeness, then education is nothing other than a traditionally understood metaphor for dialogue. Dia-logos. Or, if by any chance we were to define education as dialogue, we would necessarily have to speak of the only possible form-that is, the dialogical self-emancipation of the oikoumene. The oikoumene is the formative (educational) principle of theology itself-especially Christian theology.
