Paul Valliere
"Already the most distinguished translator of Russian religious
philosophy and theology in the English-speaking world, Boris Jakim
has outdone himself with his translation of Bulgakov's Bride of the
Lamb. Drawing on his deep understanding of modern Russian Orthodoxy
and masterfully balancing the competing demands of literal and
idiomatic translation, Jakim gives us a comprehensible Bulgakov
without blunting the visionary enthusiasm and prophetic challenges
that make Bulgakov's theology the wondrous thing that it is. Jakim
has made an exceptional contribution to contemporary theological
scholarship and ecumenical understanding. "
