Theology has a rich tradition across the African continent, and has
taken myriad directions since Christianity first arrived on its
shores. This handbook charts both historical developments and
contemporary issues in the formation and application of theologies
across the member countries of the African Union. Written by a
panel of expert international contributors, chapters firstly cover
the various methodologies needed to carry out such a survey.
Various theological movements and themes are then discussed, as
well as biblical and doctrinal issues pertinent to African
theology. Subjects addressed include: * Orality and theology *
Indigenous religions and theology * Patristics * Pentecostalism *
Liberation theology * Black theology * Social justice * Sexuality
and theology * Environmental theology * Christology * Eschatology *
The Hebrew Bible and the New Testament The Routledge Handbook of
African Theology is an authoritative and comprehensive survey of
the theological landscape of Africa. As such, it will be a hugely
useful volume to any scholar interested in African religious
dynamics, as well as academics of Theology or Biblical Studies in
an African context.
