Modernity and postmodernity are intensely contested interpretive
spaces. In a time, or mood, that many in the industrialized world
consider to be "postmodern," what should the contribution of
Christian theology be? What are its chances, its challenges, its
hopes and limits? This volume represents a collection of approaches
by various authors whose work engages the contemporary theological
space-modern, postmodern, and otherwise - in ways that are in
critical conversation with "radical orthodoxy," but suggesting
alternative approaches and readings. The authors in this volume
respond to "radical orthodoxy's" controversial claims about
postmodern space, in ways that aim to acknowledge the importance of
the questions and critiques raised by Milbank, Pickstock, Ward, and
others, but that proposes different responses to issue crucial to
contemporary theological discourse such as: the difficulty to
engage the powerful critiques offered by radical orthodoxy, while
resisting the totality of vision and approach, the struggle for
justice against poverty and predatory capitalism, theologies of
incarnation, theological gender constructions, participation and
presence in the eucharistic liturgy, narrative legitimacy through
periodization, the radical nature of ethnic and cultural Otherness,
reciprocity and redemption, immanence and transcendence, feminist
philosophy of religion, a Jewish feminist re-enchantment of the
world, theological eurocentrism, theologies of gift and economic
exchange, and constructive theology.
