This collection, marking the centenary of Avery Dulles's birth,
makes an entirely distinctive contribution to contemporary
theological discourse as we approach the second century of the
cardinal's influence, and the twenty-first of Christian witness in
the world. Moving beyond a festschrift, the volume offers both
historical analyses of Dulles's contributions and applications of
his insights and methodologies to current issues like immigration,
exclusion, and digital culture. It includes essays by Dulles's
students, colleagues, and peers, as well as by emerging scholars
who have been and continue to be indebted to his theological vision
and encyclopedic fluency in the ecclesiological developments of the
post-conciliar Church. Though focused more on Catholic and
ecumenical affairs than interreligious ones, the volume is
intentionally outward-facing and strives to make clear the diverse
and pluralistic contours of the cardinal's nearly unrivaled impact
on the North American Church, which truly crossed ideological,
denominational, and generational boundaries. While critically
recognizing the limits and lacunae of his historical moment, it
serves as one among a multitude of testaments to the notion that
the ripples of Avery Dulles's influence continue to widen toward
intellectually distant shores.
