протопресвитера Александра Шмемана
Интервью со свящ. Георгием Кочетковым, П. И. Мейендорфом,
В. де Хан, З. М. Дашевской, В. В. Александровым
ABSTRACT: September 2021 marks 100 years since the birth of Fr. Alexander
Schmemann. This interview focusses on the main significance of his work for
Christian theology in the fields of liturgical revival and Eucharistic Theology.
Fr. Georgy Kochetkov notes the role of Fr. Alexander’s works and ecclesial
activity in spreading ideas that facilitate liturgical renewal both in the Russian
and American Orthodox Churches. At the same time, he believes that the further
development of an Orthodox theology of the Holy Mysteries (sacraments) may
involve a more thorough discernment of the sacramental and mystical levels
within spiritual experience. P. I. Meyendorff takes the view that the liturgical
renewal within the Orthodox Church, that began at the end of the 19th century,
at first had a very individualistic character and presumed only that individual
believers would receive communion more frequently; but thanks to the
theological works of Fr. Alexander, which were based on careful study of early-
church sources, the Eucharist came to be understood as an affair of the entire
ecclesial gathering, rather than as an affair for individual piety. Professor
