Jon Sobrino continues the magisterial christology begun in Jesus
the Liberator. In that book Sobrino examined the identity of Jesus
in relation to his message, his interlocutors, and the conflict
that led to his death. In this second volume he takes up the
Resurrection of Christ, the christology of the New Testament, and
finally the christological formulae of the early church councils.
Throughout Christ the Liberator Sobrino writes from the reality
of faith, as set in motion by the event of Jesus Christ, and from
the situation of the victims -- the "Crucified People" of history
-- particularly the poor of El Salvador, with whom he works. With
Christ the Liberator Sobrino's christology takes its place among
the most significant contributions of Latin America to the church
and theology today.

The International Kierkegaard Commentary-For the first time in
English the world community of scholars systematically assembled
and presented the results of recent research in the vast literature
of Soren Kierkegaard. Based on the definitive English edition of
Kierkegaard's works by Princeton University Press, this series of
commentaries addresses all the published texts of the influential
Danish philosopher and theologian. This is volume 1 in a series of
commentaries based upon the definitive translations of
Kierkegaard's writings published by Princeton University Press,
1980ff.
In The Emergence of Pastoral Authority in the French Reformed
Church, c.1555-c.1572, Gianmarco Braghi offers a broad overview of
the issues and ambiguities connected to the implementation of the
authority of the first generation of Geneva-trained French Reformed
pastors and of their implications for the character and identity of
the early French Reformed movement at large, using them as a prism
for historical analysis of the transition from loose evangelicalism
to a nascent synodal-consistorial network of Reformed congregations
scattered across the kingdom of France.
Doyle constructs communion ecclesiology as a broad and inclusive
category that makes room for a range of legitimate approaches. He
examines the approaches of Johann Adam Mohler, Charles Journet,
Henri de Lubac, Yves Congar, Karl Rahner, Hans Urs von Balthasar,
Elizabeth Johnson, Joseph Ratzinger and many others.
This second of a two-volume work provides a new understanding of
Western subjectivity as theorized in the Augustinian Rule. A
theopolitical synthesis of Antiquity, the Rule is a humble, yet
extremely influential example of subjectivity production. In these
volumes, Jodra argues that the Classical and Late-Ancient
communitarian practices along the Mediterranean provide historical
proof of a worldview in which the self and the other are not
disjunctive components, but mutually inclusive forces. The
Augustinian Rule is a culmination of this process and also the
beginning of something new: the paradigm of the monastic self as
protagonist of the new, medieval worldview. In the previous volume,
Jodra gave us the Mediterranean backstory to Augustine's Rule. In
this volume two, he develops his solution to socialism, through a
kind of Augustinian communitarianism for today, in full. These
volumes therefore restore the unity of the Hellenistic and Judaic
world as found by the first Christians, proving that the self and
the other are two essential pieces in the construction of our
world.
