This imaginative study rethinks the nature of theology and its role
in universities. The author sketches out a fascinating project
using examples from US and UK institutions, whereby theology
becomes a transformative force within universities. It imagines
what a Christian university, in which all disciplines have been
theologized, would look like. It feeds into discussions about the
religious identity of denominationally-linked colleges and
universities. It forms part of a wider attempt to imagine a vital
public role for theology that enables it to serve both the Church
and the wider community.
