This title was first published in 2003:This book offers a bold
reading of Protestant tradition from a rhetorical and literary
perspective. Arguing that Protestant thought is based in a
rhetorical performance of authority, Hobson draws on a wide range
of modern and postmodern thought to defend this account of
rhetorical authority from various charges of authoritarianism. With
close readings of Augustine, Luther, Kierkegaard and Barth, this
book develops a new 'rhetorical theology of the Word' and also a
new critique of secular modernity, with particular reference to
modern literature and the thought of Nietzsche. Confronting the
related issues of rhetoric and authority, Hobson provides a
provocative account of modern theology which offers new
perspectives on theology's relationship to literature and
postmodern thought.
