The Oxford Handbook of Jonathan Edwards offers a state-of-the-art
summary of scholarship on Edwards by a diverse, international, and
interdisciplinary group of Edwards scholars, many of whom serve as
global leaders in the burgeoning world of research and writing on
'America's theologian'. As an early modern clerical polymath,
Edwards is of interest to historians, theologians, and literary
scholars. He is also an interlocutor for contemporary clergy and
philosophical theologians. All such readers-and many more-will find
here an authoritative overview of Edwards' life, ministry, and
writings, as well as a representative sampling of cutting-edge
scholarship on Edwards from across several disciplines. The volume
falls into four sections, which reflect the diversity of Edwards
studies today. The first section turns to the historical Edwards
and grounds him in his period and the relevant contexts that shaped
his life and work. The second section balances the historical
reconstruction of Edwards as a theological and philosophical
thinker with explorations of his usefulness for constructive
theology and the church today. In part three, the focus shifts to
the different ways and contexts in which Edwards attempted to
realize his ideas and ideals in his personal life, scholarship, and
ministry, but also to the ways in which these historical realities
stood in tension with, limited, or resisted his aspirations. The
final section looks at Edwards' widening renown and influence as
well as diverse appropriations. This Handbook serves as an
authoritative guide for readers overwhelmed by the enormity of the
multi-lingual world of Edwards studies. It will bring readers up to
speed on the most important work being done and then serve them as
a benchmark in the field of Edwards scholarship for decades to
come.
