“…From the 1880s onward, a new generation of literati was rediscovering romanticism and from there moved to fin‐de‐siècle spiritualism. Pantheism was the underlying philosophy of the movement (Mathaiopoulos ; Lamm ; Politis ). Greek theologians were taking down several birds with one stone.…”

What was science for the Orthodox Greek theologian of the nineteenth century? How did it feature in his (theologians were all men at the time) own work? This article is an attempt to describe the science and religion interactions by placing Greek Orthodox theologians of the nineteenth century in the center of the historical narrative, rather than treat them as occasional deuteragonists in the scientists’ historiography. The picture that emerges is far more complicated than one of antagonism, indifference, conflict, or coexistence. Greek theologians saw themselves as scientists and treated theology as a positive, rational science. They developed strategies to delineate their disciplinary borders and safeguard their identity as expert scholars by harnessing their university and academic credentials. For that reason, they had to invoke famous German and other Western theologians, while ensuring that they were seen as true defenders of Orthodox Christianity. The idea of science was an integral part of this achievement.

Current theological narrations of the story of modernity typically ignore music, despite its ubiquitous role in modern culture and the ways in which music has been intertwined with modernity’s ambivalent relation to the Christian concept of God. In conversation with musicologists and music theorists, this collection of essays aims to demonstrate that the practices of music and its discourses bear their own kind of witness to some of the pivotal theological currents and counter-currents that have shaped modernity—that music has been affected in distinctive ways by those currents, and in some cases may have contributed to forming them. In addition, it seeks to show that in some cases, music is capable of yielding highly effective means of addressing and moving beyond some of the more intractable theological aporias which modernity has bequeathed to us. Particular attention is given to the complex relations between music and language, and the ways in which theology, a discipline involving language at its heart, can come to terms with practices which are undeniably coherent and meaningful but which nonetheless operate in ways that in many respects are quite distinct from language.
