Le Nouvel Âge ou l'éternel retour du même

Andrius Valevicius
This article shall begin by examining some of the religious aspects of what is commonly known as the New Age movement and it will ask whether one can really talk about something new, or rather a refusal to accept real change. The position defended here is that despite its novel appearances, the New Age movement is still rooted in the anthropocentrism of the Middle Ages and of the Enlightenment. Then, it will compare certain ideas of the New Age movement with the teaching of the Greek Fathers of the Church in order to show the richness and the perpetual youthfulness of the Christian tradition where the vision of man is not anthropocentrical but iconic and where the transformation of the universe is Eucharistic before being the work of the individual will.
