Philip Sherrard
Philip Owen Arnould Sherrard (23 September 1922 – 30 May 1995) was a British author and translator. His work includes translations of
Modern Greek poets, and books on Modern Greek literature and culture,
metaphysics,
theology,
art and
aesthetics. In
England he was influential in making major
Greek poets of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries known. Sherrard was a practising
Eastern Orthodox Christian and was responsible, along with
Kallistos Ware and
G. E. H. Palmer, for the first full translation of the
Philokalia into English. He also wrote prolifically on theological and philosophical themes, describing what he believed to be a social and spiritual crisis occurring in the developed world, specifically modern attitudes towards the biophysical
environment from a Christian and
perennialist perspective.
