About this product

Product Information

This volume continues the exploration of theology in relation to other disciplines (mediated by philosophy), in order to demonstrate a creative and imaginative role for the Christian theologicalperspective within the university setting.Following its sister volumes Theology and Philosophy: Faith and Reason and Christianity and the Disciplines: The Transformation of the University, this book extends and deepens a dialogue between faith and the academic disciplines, and thereby raises theologically and philosophically principled challenges for contemporary academic discussions.It does so in the context of postmodern, critical approaches to literature.

Reviews
Theology and Literature after Postmodernity brings us an intelligently provocative set of essays. To read them all is to have one's sense of the possible interactions of theology and literature greatly expanded. The essays provide many insightful, even brilliant, readings of texts, but their greater contribution is to lay paths for future scholarship, for those who have the courage and resourcefulness to follow ., The aim of this volume, the editors make clear, is to create a 'hospitable' space where theological and literary texts, and those who read, write and discuss them, can converse creatively and openly. 'Hospitality' implies food offered to a guest. We receive a banquet here: a rich variety of remarkably thought-provoking essays, with something for every taste. It is one of those 'all-you-can-eat' banquets, as each 'dish' (or chapter) invites and repays multiple 'tastings'. Hospitality also creates an abiding debt of gratitude to the host; and certainly, I closed this book conscious, not only of a sense of fullness and well-being, but of a debt to all who 'hosted' me as I read their works., "This fine collection features some of the liveliest minds at work in Anglophone literary and theological study. They avoid the postmodernist denial of any transcendent basis for such binaries as belief and unbelief, time and eternity, comedy and tragedy. Instead, they unite such contraries within a complex and difficult tension that identifies both the absence and presence of God in a secular age such as ours. They do so by fresh readings of figures which range from Augustine and Gregory the Great to Dante and Nicholas of Cusa, from Shakespeare and Wordsworth to Graham Greene and R. S. Thomas, on to Philip Pullman and J. K. Rowling. Here is a veritable feast for body and soul, mind and heart alike." --Ralph C.
