Foundational Theology

Theology

“This work is a lucid, sophisticated, and persuasive reformulation of the venerable discipline of fundamental theology. It issues from the conviction that the authentically converted subjectivity of the theologian provides the grounds for the truly compelling objectivity of theology. As such, it is an attractive—and challenging—invitation to theology for newcomers (not to mention a salutary reminder for old hands). Its collaborative spirit is evident not only in its composition, but also in its provision of a secure base from which other theological approaches can advance their distinct contributions with methodological clarity and effectiveness. By this generous and integrative approach, Foundational Theology allows theologians spread out across diverse specialties to see their work as part of a shared enterprise, one that seeks to give a coherent account of all the breadth and richness of Christian hope.”

Saving Wisdom

Theology

“In Saving Wisdom, Brian Hughes has made a very important contribution to the question of the place of theology in the modern university. His lucid and detailed comparative analysis of four outstanding Christian thinkers is a must-read for those seeking to place this debate in its broader intellectual and historical context.”

Solidarity with the World

Theology

“A marvelous book that brings Taylor's narrative reflections on secularization into conversation with Balthasar's dramatic recasting of theology. The consequent reframing of authenticity in terms of sanctity grounds an attractive account of the Church's urgent and challenging task of mission in a secular age. A must read for theologians and Christian leaders seeking to achieve the renewal envisioned by Vatican II.”
