Tertullian was the first western Christian to write theology,
defending Christians against the hostility of the Roman state, as
well as arguing against Marcion, Praxeas and theosophical fantasy.
A complex thinker, Tertullian has, in the modern era, been rejected
by both liberal Christianity and its secular critics. But his ideas
have become more accessible in our century, which has seen the
destruction of Enlightenment beliefs that reason should lead to a
quasi-mathematical system. The work of Goedel, Wittgenstein, Rorty
and so many others has opened up the way for an understanding of
Tertullian's passion for opposites, contingency and rational
argument. For a long time misquoted and misused, Tertullian now
calls for sustained analysis and interpretation. This book offers a
major reappraisal of his theology and its influence on the shape of
the western Christian tradition.
