Synopsis "El Rostro Interior (in Spanish)"

La revelación bíblica, al afirmar que Dios se ha hecho rostro y que el hombre es imagen de Dios, ha privilegiado el rostro humano. Sin embargo, hoy, la 'muerte de Dios' amenaza esa faz humana despreciada por los totalitarismos y el anonimato de las grandes ciudades. Incluso el arte contemporáneo parece olvidarse de su represen-tación. De ahí la urgencia de una reflexión sobre el rostro que se abre a la eternidad, a lo inagotable, y que nos conducirá al “rostro de los rostros”, el de Dios hecho hombre, para permitirnos descifrar en él la faz humana y el icono del hombre deificado. Además, todo rostro, por desgastado o destruido que esté, a poco que nosotros lo veamos con la mirada del corazón, se nos revela lejos de la repetición, único e inimitable.

Olivier Clément (1921–2009) was a French theologian and writer, converted to Orthodox Christianity at thirty after a deep spiritual search influenced by authors like Dostoevsky and Berdiaev. Professor at the Saint-Serge Orthodox Theology Institute in Paris, he stood out for his commitment to ecumenical dialogue and his participation as a lay observer in the Second Vatican Council. He was also awarded honorary doctorates by the Theological Institute of Bucharest and the Catholic University of Louvain.

A prolific author in the genres of theology, spirituality, and essay, his most notable works in Spanish include Approaching Prayer (1986), The Orthodox Church (1990), God is Sympathy (2011), The Faces of the Spirit (2015), The Joy of the Resurrection (2016), Theopoetics of the Body (2017), and Christ, Land of the Living (2024). His legacy endures as a bridge between East and West, offering a profound and poetic vision of the Christian faith.
