Abstract

This article presents a panoramic view of the ideas posited by Roman Catholic and Orthodox theologians of the twentieth century regarding history from a theological point of view and as they were propounded during discussions of philosophy and history. The author wishes to shed light on one of the more knotty problems of the relationship between theology and history, understood as a novel type of theological reflection — the relationship between sacred and profane history. After deep reflection on these questions, one is able to define how theologians are to view history and precisely the way God and man interact throughout it.
