Feiernde Erinnerung als Wachsamkeitsübung: Das Konzil von Nizäa (325) in der Orthodoxen Kirche

The essay is dedicated to the way in which the first ecumenical council (Nicaea 325) is embedded in the celebratory culture of remembrance (heortology) and the iconic-narrative world (iconography) of the Orthodox Church. Among other things, the author argues in favour of the introduction of a feast day of the Nicene Council to be celebrated throughout Christendom, as the heortological equivalent of a growing synodal ethos. Furthermore, the author asks about the possible relevance of the 1700-year anniversary of Nicea for today's discourse, emphasizing the challenging centrality of genuine theological questions (Triadology and Christology).
