4.0 out of 5 stars
Readable but scholarly analysis of an heroic figure,
By Kurt Vorndran (kvorn@nteuhq1.nteu.org (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Confessor Between East and West: A Portrait of Ukrainian Cardinal Josyf Slipyj (Hardcover)
H.B. Josyf Slipyj was Head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church for almost the entire period of Soviet rule in Ukraine. The book details both his life in the Soviet Gulag and his exile in Rome. However, it does not move in a typical chronological biographical fashion. Pelikan instead explains the various philosophical and theological influences on the life of a bishop who gave to the Ukrainian (Greek) Catholic Church both his mind, as a great intellectual force, and his body, in his physical sufferings at the hands of the Communists.
