The history of Christian theology can be a daunting, even
forbidding field for the novice, who sees neither the need for nor
pertinence of rummaging around dusty old texts. This
people-friendly volume, a full-scale reader in the history of
Christian theology, offers an easy, non-threatening, occasionally
humorous yet quite thorough entry into Christianity's central texts
from the Apostolic Fathers to Mary Daly. It is also enlivened by
dozens of cartoons by Rich Diesslin. Highly accessible
introductions to five periods precede brief introductions to and
texts from more than fifty key thinkers. The texts highlight
perennial themes and questions in Christian tradition, especially
the meaning and importance of Jesus, challenges to the
institutional church, tensions of faith and reason, spirituality,
and the Christian quest for social justice. The new edition, half
again as large as the original, adds significant work from the
Cappadocian Fathers and the Christological controversialists, the
Franciscan tradition, the Radical and English reforms, and deeper
coverage of twentieth-century theologians. With learning aids,
research-paper suggestions and guide, and glossary.
