"This book examines the significance of koinonia for contemporary ecumenical theology, tracing the development of contemporary understanding in critical engagement with the thought of Plato, Aristotle, the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, the Cappadocian Fathers, and Augustine. In each case, reflection on community life is related to actual communities in which texts were produced."--Jacket.
