Philotheos (ΦΙΛΟΘΕΟΣ) is an international journal for philosophy and theology which was founded in 2001 and is edited by Bogoljub Šijaković, a Serbian intellectual and one-time politician. Like its editor, Philotheos was initially based at the Philosophy Faculty in Nikšić (Montenegro), but since 2006 it has been produced at the Faculty of Orthodox Theology at the University of Belgrade. Although closely associated with the Serbian Orthodox Church, Philotheos publishes articles of philosophical and theological interest in the Christian tradition broadly construed. Indeed, Philotheos offers an unusually broad forum for ecumenical exchange. It publishes contributions in many European languages that do not usually appear side by side, such as English, French, German, Greek, and Russian. The journal has managed to attract contributions from many well-known academics both in Europe and North America. Given its Orthodox leanings, Philotheos has a certain focus on the Neoplatonic tradition in philosophy and theology, but it has carried articles on many other topics.
Philotheos mainly publishes articles; book reviews are more rare. It appears in one annual volume of between 300 and 500 pages. Since 2004, each volume contains a complete table of contents for all the issues that have appeared so far.
Famous quotes containing the words journal, philosophy and/or theology:
“The writer in me can look as far as an African-American woman and stop. Often that writer looks through the African-American woman. Race is a layer of being, but not a culmination.”
—Thylias Moss, African American poet. As quoted in the Wall Street Journal (May 12, 1994)
“Of your philosophy you make no use
If you give place to accidental evils.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)
