Behind every important development in Catholic doctrine and
practice since the beginning of the modern period have been debates
about the interpretation of Christianity's classic texts and
traditions and their ideological and practical implications. Over
the past century there have been breakthroughs in retrieving the
origins of beliefs and practices, recovering the rich, myriad, and
multifaceted literary forms, and recognizing the ways these
venerable traditions have been received, applied, and negotiated in
the lives of reading audiences with their contrasting worldviews.
The essays in this volume by leading figures in Catholic theology
suggest what might be called a "third naivete" that blends deeply
contextual interpretations with a critical theological analysis of
the roles of power and grace in church and society. The abilities
and skills to grapple with basic issues in hermeneutics and
critical theory remain necessary and fundamental for Catholic
theology. At stake is nothing less than how the good news of God's
salvation can be grasped and lived today. This volume provides a
trustworthy map and compass for negotiating these debates and
options. Contributors include: Sandra M. Schneiders, Francis
Schussler Fiorenza, Robert J. Schreiter, John E. Thiel, Dominic
Doyle, Fernando F. Segovia, Andrew Prevot, Ormond Rush, Judith
Gruber, Susan Abraham, Anthony J. Godzieba, and Bradford E. Hinze.
