The article is devoted to the presentation and analysis of the views of the prominent Russian-French female theologian Myrrha Lot-Borodine concerning the Eastern Christian conception of theosis. First, I present a history of the appearance of her works in this field. Then, the aspect of theocentrism of Eastern Christianity is discussed as well as its specificity as a tradition which combines both cataphatic and apophatic approaches. The analysis role of body in theosis is also shown. Lot-Borodine was one of the first theologian who dedicated her work on deification, and a brief reception of her publications on this topic is displayed.
