Jean-Claude Larchet The Ethics of Procreation in the Teaching of the Holy Fathers Translated from French by Marinela Bojin During the last years the questions on the ethics of procreation have arisen many debates and they are still being discussed in today society. Their answers cannot be found neither in medicine or biology nor in sociology or psychology. Their answers belong to the domain of an anthropology with precise knowledge not only on the nature of man but also on the purpose of his existence and activities. Apart from the historical interest of the Fathers their position often offers, as we are about to see, original points of view regarding the modern religious and nonreligious reference contexts and suggests a timely rediscussion of them, new directions for the debates, unknown ways for research in the benefit of both the social institutions which are in search for defining a proper ethics and the Christian confessions which often don't suspect the riches of their tradition.
