Since I’m invested in PhD research on the topic of the Theology of Work and Manual Labor from 2010-2012, I though it might be helpful to others with a similar interest to share my bibliography as I go along. In my doctoral research, I’m quite keen to address some gaps in theological writing on work, and so I’ve pursued a particular focus on the subject of work in biblical studies and biblical theology. I’ll start with some of the major works of the twentieth-century that scholars are (still) responding to, and follow with some particular selections that may be a bit less mainstream.

In the meantime, please drop me a comment or email if you see something I’m missing or if you have feedback to share on any of the works I’ve got presented here, and thanks for checking the page out!

E. Laborem Exercens and Roman Catholic Social Teaching

Because the twentieth century legacy of theological reflection on work is one area in which the threads of Roman Catholic and Protestant thought tend to converge and cross paths, I hesitate to categorize works in this bibliography. One exception is for the legacy of Roman Catholic social thought which begins with “Rerum Novarum” by Leo XIII (1891) and has found its most recent expression in “Laborem Exercens” by John Paul II (1981). There are distinctions between the two approaches, but JP-II goes to great lengths to demonstrate how his reflection is in continuity with what preceded him. Both encyclicals can be found with critical summary and introduction in:

Charles, Rodger. The Modern Social Teaching: Contexts, Summaries, Analysis. Christian social witness and teaching: the Catholic tradition from Genesis to Centesimus Annus 2. Leominster, Herefordshire: Gracewing, 1998.

F. Volf, Miroslav. Work in the Spirit : Toward a Theology of Work. New York: Oxford University Press, 1991. [Review]
Volf’s book serves as one of the primary reference points for most contemporary Protestant studies in the theology of work. He draws a great deal on the work of his teacher Jürgen Moltmann. Along these lines see:

Moltmann, Jürgen. “Sinn Der Arbeil.” In Recht Auf Arbeit, Sinn Der Arbeit. München: Kaiser, 1979.

5. Surveys and Bibliographies
Lacoste, Jean-Yves. “Work: A. Historical Theology.” In Encyclopedia of Christian Theology. Edited by Jean-Yves Lacoste. Routledge, 2005, pp. 1729-1732. Short but remarkably insightful survey of Christian reflection on work. Very highly recommended reading.

Calhoun, Robert. “Work and Vocation in Christian History.” In Work and Vocation, a Christian Discussion. Edited by John Oliver Nelson. New York: Harper, 1954. Helpful companion to Lacoste as Calhoun offers a survey from a Protestant perspective at the mid-point of the twentieth century.

Michaelsen, Robert S. “A Bibliography on Work and Vocation.” In Work and Vocation, a Christian Discussion. Edited by John Oliver Nelson. New York: Harper, 1954. Lightly annotated, but nonetheless extremely useful bibliography. Covers primary sources of historical relevance and the contemporary scene (in 1954).
5b. Surveys, Dissertations, and Bibliographies on ‘Vocation’
From the beginning, a hallmark of Protestant thought has been the notion of ‘vocation.’ Given the prominence of this tradition, most of the works surveyed in 1-2 above have critical comments regarding the viability and consequences of this tradition, and so I offer this special section here to highlight surveys and theses focused on the notion of Vocation.

You absolutely need to start with the magisterial survey by Karl Holl, translated by Heber F. Peacock for Review & Expositor. As Calhoun rightly notes, Holl deals somewhat hastily with patristic and early medieval thought in his enthusiasm for the Protestant vocation tradition. Better attention to the patristic materials can be appreciated in the survey by Lacoste listed above.

Holl, Karl. “History of the Word “Vocation” (Beruf).” Review & Expositor 55, no. 2 (1958): 126-154.

Preece, Gordon R. The Viability of the Vocation Tradition in Trinitarian, Credal, and Reformed Perspective : The Threefold Call. Lewiston, NY: Edwin Mellen Press, 1998. Preece’s work is not strictly historical theology, but rather a systematic work, offering a critical appropriation of Barth, but he nonetheless provides a good deal of critical background.

6. Relevant Non-Religious Critical Reflection on Labour
There are several surveys that provide a good starting point. These can direct you to other resources, or at least get your appetite whetted to the possibilities:

Karl Marx, Capital

Max Weber, The Protestant Ethic

R.H. Tawney, Religion and the Rise of Capitalism

Ernst Troeltsch, The Social Teaching of the Christian Churches

Please note: I’m trying to keep this bibliography synchronized with a few different social networked outlets. For those who are interested, you can see the research group on Mendeley, CiteULike GroupConnotea, Academia research interest, and Worldcat Bibliography. One of my favorite theologians is Metropolitan John D. Zizioulas, and I’m certainly not alone in appreciating his insights. I find especially, as I come from the Protestant evangelical tradition, that much of his presentation of Eastern Orthodox Christian doctrine is challenging in helpful ways to my own doctrinal presuppositions. I’ve spend quite a bit of time writing a masters thesis on Zizioulas and exploring his work as a resource for ecological ethics and as a result I’ve got some resources to share. Below I’m going to include a working (and annotated) bibliography of his work, which can hopefully aid other in their research on his work. Also included is some summary of secondary sources dealing with his work and some introductory comments for those first encountering Zizioulas’ work.

1. How to get started with Metropolitan John
By way of introduction and in an attempt to categorize Zizioulas I would suggest that there are three different levels of theological writing, all three (I would argue) quite necessary! They are: 1) Technical systematics (i.e. theologians writing for other theologians) 2) Conceptual theology (i.e. theologians writing for pastors and theologically trained laypeople) 3) Applied theology (i.e. the universal audience – writing for everyone) John Calvin started in the third category and as he revised the institutes gradually worked his way up towards (1). Zizioulas usually falls into categories 1 and 2. He writes often in very technical language, and enters into existing theological conversations (like “personhood”) which have a very complicated background including both contemporary and historical theological work. He assumes in his writing that the reader is familiar with the resources he has learned from and is drawing on (i.e. Maximus the confessor, and Georges Florovsky, for example) without providing an explanation for the uninitiated. This is good, in his case, as if this background were included… a 20 page essay would become a 400 page book! It is also the case that Zizioulas’ work gets quoted and studied in category 1 work by other theologians. I don’t introduce these categories to suggest that there is a hierarchy of audiences, or any other such thing, but rather to warn the reader (whether they have theological training or not) that in approaching Zizioulas work, one should be prepared to do some background reading, and then read the essay again, and again, and again! With this in mind, I would suggest that the reader first coming to Zizioulas’ work do some homework up front.

  • Douglas Knight (a “Zizioulas approved” theologian) has written an excellent introduction to his work in Lectures in Christian Dogmatics (2009). Knight surveys Zizioulas’ approach to theology in broad contour and provides a helpful survey of how various commitments bear out over the whole of theological reflection.
  • Cambridge University Press has just published an excellent Cambridge Companion to Orthodox Christian Theology which has several chapters which are relevant to Zizioulas. In seeking to understand the present problems faced by the Orthodox church and the issues towards which Zizioulas is (often implicitly) writing, check out the Introduction, “Who Are the Orthodox Christians? A Historical Introduction.”
  • In the same volume, also check out Chapter 12 “The Patristic Revival and its Protagonists” to get a feel for Zizioulas’ theological method and in particular his use of early Christian theology.
  • Finally, for a longer treatment of Zizioulas, check out just about anything by Aristotle Papanikolaou. He presents by far the most sensitive readings of Zizioulas that I’ve encountered (along with Douglas Knight and Paul McPartlan).

2. About Zizioulas’ Writing
I’ll include a full annotated bibliography below, but it also bears mention that Zizioulas’ writing doesn’t fit into the typical publishing academic pattern. The major reason for this, I suspect, is the fact that he has been a theological teacher, churchman (very actively involved in the ecumenical work of the Orthodox church) and for the past several decades bishop. As a result, most of his published work, except for his doctoral dissertation, consists of essays, journal articles, and collections of essays. The only full length monograph, “Lectures in Christian Dogmatics” is a transcription of his Theology Course and thus not originally a book in the strict sense. He is certainly systematic in his approach, always keeping the major categories and the whole scope of the Christian life and belief in mind when he writes, but most of the articles have an occasion or a problem that they’re written for specifically. This is helpful to keep in mind when reading Zizioulas.

3. Biography of Zizioulas
(Note: This is an excerpt from my master’s thesis, meant to briefly introduce Zizioulas’ life and approach with a brief biography) Three themes intertwine in Zizioulas’ biography: (1) integrative academic theology bringing together reflection that is historical, theological, and biblical, (2) distinctive deployment for his church, and (3) ecumenical rapport. Though much of Zizioulas’ written work has not been available in English until fairly recently, his work both as a theologian and churchman has spanned nearly a half-century. His academic career began with study at the Universities of Thessalonika and Athens in 1950, and then a year at the ecumenical Institute of Bossey in 1955. Between 1960 and 1964 Zizioulas did doctoral research under Georges Florovsky, Chair of Eastern Church History at Harvard and a member of the Russian Orthodox Church. This move to Harvard by Zizioulas marked the start of a vibrant interaction with Western Christianity which has continued to the present day. Zizioulas took up a post at the University of Athens in 1964 as Assistant Professor of Church History, and returned “Westward” six years later, working as Professor of Patristics at the University of Edinburgh from 1970 until he took up a post as Professor of Systematic Theology at Glasgow in 1973. Just over a decade later Zizioulas published his first major monograph, Being as Communion (1985), and shortly thereafter became Metropolitan of Pergamon (1986). In the same year, he assumed a full time academic post at Thessaloniki School of Theology as Professor of Dogmatics. Throughout this academic career, Zizioulas has demonstrated his commitment to dogmatics not as free-standing discourse, but as providing resources for the church. Much of his written work has aimed to clarify the theological backdrop informing church life, centering particularly on the place of the Eucharist and the bishop.*1* Thus prior to BC, many of his articles were written for ecumenical forums in which he participated frequently.*2* Along these lines, Volf suggests that “Zizioulas’s most important publications have originated within the framework of his ecumenical activity, or his ‘principal vocation’; their goal is to provide new impulses for the ecumenical dialogue between East and West.”*3* Of particular note was his appointment as delegate of the Ecumenical Patriarchate to the central committee of the World Council of Churches in 1975. All of the various facets of Zizioulas’ work reflect a fundamental attempt to express the particular heritage of Eastern Orthodox theology in a way which enables participation in ecumenicism, an effort which laid the grounds for his encounter and subsequent friendship with Colin Gunton. As a result, it is not only productive to enact a conversation between Gunton and Zizioulas, but also relevant to ask “Protestant questions” of Zizioulas, given an amply substantial reading of his work. One other element of Zizioulas’ work in the church, which is not often noted, is his extensive involvement in advocacy and teaching regarding creation care. His writing has been instrumental in shaping Orthodox positions on ecology and the environment, and he has been featured numerous times as a keynote speaker for Religion, Science & the Environment. As mentioned, one practical outcome sought in this thesis will be to draw greater attention to this focus in his work, and its explicitly theological impetus.

Zizioulas’ Theological Method: Neo-Patristic Synthesis
One commendable feature of Zizioulas’ work is his consistency in both method and thematic emphasis throughout his career. Aristotle Papanikolaou observes how the framework for a synthetic project, relying particularly on patristic sources, emerges early in Zizioulas’ dissertation, EBC. This patristic resoursement carries through consistently in later works, BC and CO.*4* These emphases arise in some part out of an Orthodox project initiated by his teacher, Georges Florovsky (who partially supervised EBC). In his work, Florovsky called for a “Neo-patristic synthesis” in response to the perceived influence of Western scholastic methods in the Orthodox Church. This new synthesis was intended to draw on historically Eastern patristic theologians, reviving their way of doing theology (and theological emphases) for use in a contemporary context. A quick survey of Zizioulas’ work to date reflects a faithful commitment to this call.*5* One consequence of his steady reliance on patristic sources is a thematic consistency, as, following the patristic legacy, method and theological themes interpenetrate. Papanikolaou again affirms how in addition to a commitment to patristic sources, EBC also contains “much of what would later be hallmarks of his thought.” Zizioulas’ emphasis in theological themes follows an emphasis in theological sources. In his analysis, this primarily includes:

An attention to historical sources especially that of the early Christians, the centrality of the Eucharist for theology, a christological ecclesiology, a pneumatologically conditioned Christology, an understanding of personhood, the importance of eschatology…*6*

While it lies outside the scope of this thesis to fully explicate Zizioulas’ carefully nuanced presentation of each of these themes, they will (as might be expected) consistently feature in his writing on the imago Dei. This is the case in part because, for Zizioulas, theological themes themselves also interpenetrate, and any study of his doctrinal work cannot take one doctrine in isolation.*7*

On Zizioulas’ Method
As suggested above, Zizioulas’ work is particularly focused on historical resources and the historical context for their doctrine. Given this fact, it is helpful to identify at the outset his method with regard to historical sources, as Zizioulas’ reflections presume a sophisticated historiography. Zizioulas’ use of the patristic fathers in particular is not mere parroting, but represents a more substantial engagement with their work and attempts to translate its content for a contemporary audience. Per Papanikolaou:

His strength lies in his theological synthesis, which does not repeat the Greek fathers, but develops their insights to their logical conclusion and is consistent with their own approach to theology. Zizioulas’s thought is an attempt at Florovsky’s (his mentor) Neo-patristic synthesis, which is not a patristic fundamentalism, but a patristically informed theology adequate to contemporary questions. As we shall see, it is, for Zizioulas, a synthesis of patristic insights interpreted within a eucharistic framework, where the Eucharist is the event where the immanent, trinitarian life of God is made present, and where the most profound human ‘longing’ for identity and communion are fulfilled.*8*

*1* Zizioulas suggests in the preface to the 2nd edition of his dissertation, “Many priests, a large part of the lay faithful and many bishops, too, do not know what exactly the task and the institution of the bishop consists in, and how it is connected with the doctrinal substance of the Church. Unfortunately, many Orthodox have it firmly entrenched in their mind that the bishop is in essence an administrator, and that in his liturgical function, including indeed the Divine Eucharist, he is not a person constitutive of the Mystery but more or less decorative someone who is invited to ’embellish’ the whole service by his presence and his vestments.” EBC, 6. *2* Affirmed by McPartlan, The Eucharist Makes the Church: Henri De Lubac and John Zizioulas in Dialogue (Edinburgh: T&T Clark, 1993), 124 and Papanikolaou, “Apophaticism v. Ontology: A Study of Vladimir Lossky and John Zizioulas,“ (PhD diss., University of Chicago, 1998), 179. *3* Volf, After Our Likeness: The Church As the Image of the Trinity (Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1998), 94. *4* Papanikolaou suggests that Eucharist, Bishop, Church, “reflects the beginnings of a synthesis which subsequent writings would later develop and clarify.” Papanikolaou, Apophaticism v. Ontology: a Study of Vladimir Lossky and John Zizioulas, 2. *5* Ibid. *6* Ibid., 177. *7* Meyendorff suggests as much in the foreword to BC, noting, “the present work by John Zizioulas… succeeds brilliantly in showing that the Orthodox doctrines of man and of the Church cannot be compartmentalized in neatly separate sections of theological science—”theology,” “anthropology,” “ecclesiology”—but are simply meaningless if approaches separately.” BC, 11. Rowan Williams makes a similar warning in his foreword to CO: “This book is, in effect, a systematic theology, though it is not structured like one. But it is also a work of apologetics in its way.” CO, xi. The most prominent critiques include Bori, “L’unité De L’église Durant Les Trois Premiers Siècles,” Revue D’histoire Ecclésiastique 65 (1970): 56-68; Halleux, “Personalisme Ou Essentialisme Trinitaire Chez Les Pères Cappadociens? Une Mauvaise Controverse,” Revue Théologique de Louvain 17 (1986): 129-55, 265-92; Baillargeon, “Perspectives Orthodoxes Sur L’eglise-Communion, L’oeuvre De Jean Zizioulas” (PhD diss., Université de Paris-Sorbonne, 1989); Volf, After Our Likeness, Turcescu, “”Person” Versus “Individual”; and Behr, “The Trinitarian Being of the Church.” *8* Papanikolaou, Apophaticism, 180.
I’ve also written a summary of some of the major themes in Zizioulas’ work, which is a bit too technical to include here, but for those interested, please check it out here.

One note for those searching for Zizioulas’ work in various journal databases. Make sure you search using all the following potential names (French and English versions and his episcopal name): John D. Zizioulas, Jean D. Zizioulas, Metropolitan John
Primary Works by Zizioulas
Note: There are extensive bibliographies devoted to Zizioulas’ published works in various languages in:

Major Monographs (in English)
1. Zizioulas, John D. Eucharist, Bishop, Church: the Unity of the Church in the Divine Eucharist and the Bishop During the First Three Centuries. Holy Cross Orthodox Press, 2001.
This is the published version of Zizioulas’ doctoral dissertation, supervised in part at Harvard under the influential Russian orthodox theologian Georges Florovsky, and completed at the University of Thessolonika. I strongly recommend anyone wishing to understand Zizioulas’ work more deeply, reading this work, as his episcopal ecclesiology has been much neglected in critical treatment. This work was previously published (in Greek and then French) as:

  • Zizioulas, John D. Hē Henotēs Tēs Ekklēsias En Tē Theia Eucharistia Kai T Episkopō Kata Tous Treis Prōtous Aiōnas. 1965
  • Zizioulas, John D. L’ Eucharistie, L’évêque Et L’eglise Durant Les Trois Premiers Siècles. 2nd ed. Translated by Jean-Louis Palierne. Paris: Desclée De Brouwer, 1994.

2. Zizioulas, John D. Being As Communion: Studies in Personhood and the Church. Crestwood, NY: St. Vladimir’s Seminary Press, 1985.
This is a translation of Zizioulas’ second major monograph, and is actually a collection of essays (some previously published in various languages). The title is descriptive enough to give you an idea of the terrain it covers. It is hard to underestimate the influence of this work in contemporary theology, Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox. Note, this is the first time many of the essays republished in this volume appear in English translation, though all represent revisions and translations of work formerly published in French, Greek, and German. This work was previously published (in French) as:

  • Zizioulas, Jean, Metr. L’être Ecclésial. French vols. Perspective orthodoxe. Genève: Labor et Fides, 1981.

This work includes revised versions of the following essays:

  • Zizioulas, Jean, Metr. “Apostolic Continuity and Orthodox Theology : Towards a Synthesis of Two Perspectives.” St Vladimir’s Theological Quarterly 19, no. 2 (1975): 75-108.
  • More to come (sorry – under construction here)

A digital version of this work is searchable via google boooks at: Being as Communion: Studies in … – Google Book Search
3. Zizioulas, John D.. “Preserving God’s Creation: Three Lectures on Theology and Ecology…”

  • “Lecture One.” King’s Theological Review 12, no. 1 (1989): 1-5.
  • “Lecture Two.” King’s Theological Review 12, no. 2 (1989): 41-45
  • “Lecture Three.” King’s Theological Review 13, no. 1 (1990): 1-5.
