Modernism's theological project was an attempt to explain two
things: firstly, how faith might enable persons to experience their
lives as hanging together, even in the face of disintegrating
forces like injustice, tragedy, and luck; and secondly, how one
could see such faith, and so a life held together by it, as
self-expressive. Modern theologians such as Kant, Schleiermacher,
Hegel, Ritschl, and Tillich thus offer accounts of how one's life
would have to hang together such that one could identify with it;
of the oppositions which stand in the way of such hanging-together;
of God as the one by whom oppositions are overcome, such that one
can have faith that one's life ultimately hangs together; and of
what such faith would have to be like in order for one to identify
with it, too. So understood, modern theology not only sheds light
on faith's potential role in enabling persons to identify with
their lives, but stands in unexpected continuity with contemporary
'contextual' theologies. This book offers clear, careful readings
of modernism's key figures in order to explain their relevance to
practical concerns and to contemporary understandings of faith.
