The sun has died. Not a planet, not a star, shines in the black
heavens. The Days of Light are less than a legend, their stories
moldered to dust amid the chaos of the ancient Libraries. Yet,
within their vast arcology, the last Millions of humanity live and
thrive. Outside, the huge entities of the Night Land watch - and
wait. The Last Redoubt has stood ten million years, and may stand
ten million years more, but its final fall is inevitable. The Land
is as unknown as the depths of space. It holds life, some of it
remotely akin to humanity. Fires burn and shadows creep; cities and
lights lie still; clothed and shrouded walkers glide forth. Other
Creatures, vaster than hills and slower and more ponderous than
glaciers, wait eternally. Forces stir in the darkness. Messages
pass across the Land. From the tower above the Redoubt, the
Monstruwacans keep record. To this Land go the explorers of the
Redoubt. Rarely, rarely, they return.
There is no doubt that Richard Hooker (1554-1600) is one of the
most important writers in the history of the Church of England.
However, since John Henry Newman presented him as a "theologian of
the via media" he has been consistently overlooked by evangelical
Anglicans. This well-documented and detailed analysis of the
theological first principles of the 'father of Anglicanism'
challenges the traditional consensus. The author examines three key
elements of Hooker's theology-namely, the authority of reason,
tradition and Scripture and evaluates Hooker's approach in the
light of his debates with contemporary Puritans including Walter
Travers, Thomas Cartwright and William Tyndale. His views are then
compared with the approaches of Erasmus and the Reformers Luther
and Calvin. Finally, the interpretations of leading and influential
Hooker scholars are examined to show how often his theological
principles have been misrepresented. This important study concludes
that Hooker's debt to the Reformation is greater and more profound
than generally acknowledged and that Hooker is consistently closer
the mainstream of Reformation thought than his Puritan opponents.
"This book is sure to put the cat among the pigeons of Hooker
scholarship, and reopen the question of interpretations which many
have assumed were resolved." -Gerald Bray, Beeson Divinity School
"A lucid, penetrating and immensely relevant study of Hooker's
theological method which firmly repudiates the influential High
church stereotype of Hooker."- Alister McGrath, from the foreword
