has finally been republished in English. I just got my copy, from Eerdmans.
I thought some of you might like to know. I look forward to reading it. The ISBN number is 0-8028-2863-9, so you can find it on Amazon.

I would recommend this book to anyone. I have a copy of it from the first time it was published -- which means it is an old hardback I am trying not to have fall apart. I will probably get a copy just so I can use it sometime.
I read the book once a few years ago. It is good, but it is not an easy work. It will challenge people who read it.

I also gave my old hardbound copy away many years ago. Glad to hear it is being republished. I just am finishing re-reading "Divine Humanity", simply incredible. Lindisfarne is also reprinting or printing new translations of some of his works. It's interesting that Von Balthasar considered Solovyov one of the most influential minds after Aquinas. I might reverse those two...(just joking, RCs...  )

I have all the Lindisfarne translations of Solovyov and Bulgakov, but was disappointed they did nothing with St Pavel.
I really enjoyed Owen Barfield's introduction to "The Meaning of Love," where he connects it to Lewis. Right now my copy is still on loan, but I expect I will get it back . . . one day.

Henry, you can get Iconostasis and the Pillar of Truth . I agree, actually out of the three (Solovyov, Bulgakov, Florensky) Florensky is my favorite (as my avatar reveals  ). You can also get his life of Elder Isidore (of New Gethsemene Hermitage) called Salt of the Earth. It has a nice biography of Fr. Pavel.

Of course one should be aware that Lindisfarne is an anthroposophic publishing house. While Steiner was perhaps the most Christian of occultists he was still something of a gnostic. In the one Solovyov book I have from them them, War, Progress and the End of History, there is an afterward by Stephen Hoeller, who is a gnostic priest and organizer of the Gnostic Catholic Church [sic].
I don't know how much this affects their translations, but one should be wary.

Lindisfarne published translations of Boris Jakim for many of the Russians, who is a very good translator. Sometimes they reprint old translations, and again, there is no problem with it.
Owen Barfield himself was a disciple of sorts of Steiner (despite being a friend of Lewis). But you also need to remember: Florensky studied and discussed theosophy.
