There is therefore a multi-paradigmatic reference from history, recent and modern times in a multi-thematic field of research.

More specifically, the following can be written in summary about the contents of this first Volume:

Ap. Chelidonis: the center of consideration is the issue of humanistic medicine and its principles. An attempt is made here to analyze known bioethical problems, such as clinical death, transplants, euthanasia, in vitro fertilization and prenatal testing. The analysis converges on the proposition that the most appropriate way to resolve bioethical dilemmas is Aristotelian mediation and proportional thinking, which ensure the right balance between the individual benefit of the patient and the collective interest of society.

G. Panagopoulos: In this study, it is attempted on the basis of the exemplary case of the interesting opera “The Siege of Corinth” by T. Rossini, the examination of the mediating role played by art, in particular melodramatic creation, between the European Philhellenic movement in Palinorthos France and the Greek struggle for independence. From a political-social point of view, it is interesting to refer to the ideological-political impact caused in France by the case of Greek freedom, as well as to the socio-political function of art, which functions as a multiplier of loads of ideological dynamics.

P. Panagiotopoulos: The example of St. Paisios of Agioreitis comes to this Volume of the magazine to remind us of the “deinon of war”, the dimensions of peace, the personal responsibility for maintaining it and for other aspects of spiritual life that are connected to the specific good (noun of peace). Elements of a discourse based on the biblical-patriarchal tradition of the Christian Church, but also on the saint’s personal experiences from his military service, are detected in this case.

I. Kourempeles: The engagement with the work of J. Ratzinger has now shown an important and extensive bibliography. In this case, with this study, the attitude of J. Ratzinger on the subject of theological relativism is considered from a theological-philosophical point of view. Based on a specific bibliographic example, the aspects of considering the problem in a comparative context are analyzed and the theological propositions that emerge from this comparative consideration are underlined.

N. Denaxas: In the context of considering the era, where the intense as well as aggressive reflexivity towards all areas of human activity is established, the conditions that are formed are emphasized, but also the social reality itself in which conflicting forms emerge, which they are created by the centrifugal tendencies to impose a generalizing, deconstructive and oversimplifying revisionism, even against Nature itself and the laws that govern it. Work, as a historical and social dimension, is part of the framework of self-viewing and examination. Structural changes are found in the very methodology of the work, which the postmodern “woke” culture of cancellation, with its variously named “correctnesses”, is unable or even not interested in following.

Th. Houvarda: The example of Vissarion of Trebizond, metropolitan of Nicaea and later cardinal of the Roman Church, is extremely interesting, as it is one of the dominant figures of the Synod of Ferrara-Florence. Having worked towards a crusade that would save his homeland from the Turkish danger with the help of the West, the speech of the Oratio Dogmatica examined in the present study has a weight of special interest. The philosophical way of reasoning and method of approach of the Fathers, insofar as it becomes an argumentative tool, allows him to focus on the common elements, in order to serve his unifying effort, continuing a spacious interpretation of the doctrine of “emanation” (inv. of the Holy Spirit) . Bessarion prioritizes the salvation of the country over the accuracy of the Church’s dogmatic teaching.

P. Seraphim: The present work of particular historical interest focuses on the patriarchal election of 1948, when Athenagoras Spyros was elected Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople in place of the resigned Patriarch Maximus V. In this case, the decline or rather the cancellation of the popular networks, which traditionally played a decisive role in the matters of the election of the Ecumenical Patriarchs until then, and the emergence of new poles of power, now of a political nature, directly connected to the new international political framework established after B World War, the Cold War.

K. Spalioras: The importance of a good school climate in the effective functioning of the school unit and its position as an axis and evaluation indicator in the “Evaluation of School Units, of the Ministry of Education, Religion and Sports and the Institute of Educational Policy is the content of this study . The need for the instrumental use of assessment to investigate good school climate is investigated and emphasized. The ultimate purpose of this evaluation is to highlight and address the weaknesses presented in the Greek Education System for its quality upgrade for the benefit of Greek children and all those who benefit from Greek Education.

K. Manzanaris: In this study, the way in which R. Musil breaks through the philosophical discourse of modernity, opening up new fields of reflection, is detected. In fact, the essence of things emerges through the cries of the inner experience of his characters, with the identification of new fields of existential experiences at the limits of a so-called “other condition”. In these limits M. Buber’s thought regarding the unity of the soul and the world is advanced as imparting a mystical echo, which is heard as a redemption in the European becoming at the end of the century. M. Buber therefore delivers to R. Musil a new existential meaning that is shaped under the mysticism of the East, deconstructing literary forms during their simultaneous rupture and unification.
