Revelation and Story explores the relationship between the theology
of revelation and the theology of story or narrative theology.
Mediating between German systematic theology's concern for
revelation and current Anglo-Saxon interest in narrative theology
and centrality of 'story', this book illuminates both traditions.
Exploring 'revelation' and 'story' from both theological and
philosophical perspectives, this book connects these concepts with
questions of the authority of religious and literary texts,
particularly the Bible. Believing that God's revelation precedes
and forestalls all human perception of God, all speech about God,
and every attempt to experience anything about God or know Him,
leading scholars from both Anglo-Saxon and German traditions are
brought together to present a diverse range of conceptions relating
to how God's revelation occurs, resulting in a new theory of the
relation of revelation and story which transcends the traditional
cultural divide. Stanley Hauerwas contributes the Foreword.
Revelation and Story offers a valuable new contribution to
systematic theology, hermeneutics, and the study of the authority
of Scripture, as well as presenting insights into important
overlaps between British and German theology. This book will be of
particular interest to scholars and students of philosophy and
theology, and to students of literature and literary theory with an
interest in hermeneutics.
