THE TEACHING ABOUT DOGMA AND THE MELODIC THINKING OF THE THEOLOGIAN JUSTIN POPOVICI

Abstract

The present article proposes an incursion into the teaching about dogma and the melodic thinking of the theologian Iustin Popovici. Saint Iustin Popovici, by his baptismal name Blagoje, represents one of the most important names of the clergy of the Serbian Orthodox Church, whose writings, especially in the field of dogmatics, are a landmark in this Philosophy of Orthodox truth, as Father Iustin himself calls it, Dogmatics of the Orthodox Church, in its three emblematic volumes of the same name. Volume I was translated into Romanian by deacon Žarko Markovski and published by the Doxologia publishing house in 2017. The other two volumes of the Justinian Dogmatics can be read in Serbian, having been published many years ago by the publishing house of the Ćelije Monastery, whose archimandrite and Saint Justin was a priest.
