The Blackwell Companion to Modern Theology

In this major reference work, a team of the world's leading theologians provides a powerful overview of modern theology.

The volume begins with an outline of modern theology by the editor, including an analysis of the contemporary situation. Following an accessible structure, the 32 contributions are divided into five sections, covering:

  • • Theology's relation to other allied disciplines and to the practice of faith
  • • The history of theology
  • • Major themes such as the Trinity, incarnation, and redemption
  • • Key figures in modern theology
  • • Theology's relation to contemporary issues such as sexuality, race, mysticism, ecology, and science.

Featuring extensive bibliographic references, the Companion can be used as the basis for courses or as an essential reference for students throughout their studies.
