Elemental and Sophianic. Stylistic Dimensions of Orthodoxy In the present study I approach the elemental and sophianic concepts in their
quality of dimensions of the stylistic epistemology of orthodoxy as a
reflection of an avant la lettre expressionism. I also made a few references to
German expressionism, which philosopher Lucian Blaga viewed as a cultural style
with accents set on a dynamics of an almost secularized activism, also having
this cultural style of civilization, of Germanic and Nordic culture. Elemental
and sophianic dimensions organically belong to Orthodoxy and these concepts are
studied by Lucian Blaga in their various forms of expression from ballads to
the construction and architecture of Romanian Orthodox churches. These concepts
appear as transfigured antinomies that postulate the mystery of divinity. IOAN MARIŞ |
