This book contains the Acts of a colloquium held by the International Academy of Religious Science on the subject of Eucharistic ecclesiology (Thessaloniki, August 2008). The President, Stuart G. Hall (United Kingdom) resumes each contribution and poses some essential questions on the future of the Eucharist in the Churches of the East and West. Father Jean-Marie Van Cangh (Louvain-la-Neuve) defines the intimate relation between Jesus’ Last Supper and the Jewish feast. He defends the relative anteriority of the eschatological word of Jesus on wine (Mc 14, 25) as opposed to the consecrative word on wine and the fact of drinking Christ’s blood (Mc 14, 23-24), — an unthinkable gesture in the Judeo-Christian milieu. Father Hervé Legrand (Paris) insists on the perfect correlation between Eucharistic and ecclesial communion. Local churches are ‘portions’ rather than ‘members’ of the whole church. Giuseppe Ruggieri (Catania) uses concepts of ‘repraesentatio’ and ‘consensus’ to express Eucharistic ecclesiology. Christ represents the Father and the Eucharistic community represents Christ. The true representation of Christ supposes a consensus. Mr. Stavros Yangazoglou (Athens) highlights the Eucharist as the centre of the Church in the Orthodox tradition. He also insists on the dangers of Orthodox monastic tradition which leans towards religious asceticism and elitism. Abbé Gilles Routhier (Laval, Quebec) approaches Eucharistic ecclesiology from the viewpoint of practical theology. The Eucharistic gives practical theology its spiritual character and its normative, exemplary place, while the latter gives the Eucharist its specific social and institutional dimension. Father Hyacinthe Destivelle (Paris) treats Eucharistic ecclesiology in Russian theology at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. He presents the predecessors of the great Orthodox theologian Nicolas Afanassieff (who influenced the Vatican II Council). Günter Wenz (München), describes the Lutheran viewpoint as from the famous Confession of Augsbourg (1530). He demonstrates the necessity to mention the priesthood of all believers while affirming a specific ministry for presbyters and bishops. Madame Christine Lienemann-Perrin (Berne) treats meals in common apart from the Last Supper and especially the signification of the Eucharist in India and for Christians who wish to conserve their Hindu religion. She raises an important problem: the majority of Indian Christians belong to excluded sections of society (‘Dalit’ or not belonging to a caste). How can they be integrated and promoted in the official Church? The Metropolitan of Pergamon, John Zizioulas, corrects and completes the views of Russian theologian Nicolas Afanassieff. Eucharistic ecclesiology is ‘episcopo-central’. It is not the parish, but the diocese with its Bishop, which represents the local church in its ‘catholicity’.
