This volume will show how various intellectual disciplines (most
found within the modern university) can learn from theology and
philosophy in primarily methodological and substantitive terms. It
will explore the possible ways in which current presuppositions and
practices of the displine might be challenged. It will also
indicate the possibilities of both a "Christian Culture" in
relation to that discipline or the way in which that discipline
might look within a real or theoretical Christian university. >
The purpose of this volume is to offer an authoritative overview of
the positive relationship between faith and reason, the latter
understood as different mode of philosophy. It will also show that
despite important variations and differences, the manner in which
Christan faith is able to interact with other intellectual
disciplines is grounded in theology and is required by theology.
Finally it will ground the overall project of "Religion and the
University" firmly in different ecclesial communities within the
Christian family and differing theological-philosophical
orientations that might be trans-denominational.
This volume deploys theology in a reconstructive approach to
contemporary literary criticism, to validate and exemplify
theological readings of literary texts as a creative exercise. It
engages in a dialogue with interdisciplinary approaches to
literature in which theology is alert and responsive to the
challenges following postmodernism and postmodern literary
criticism. It demonstrates the scope and explanatory power of
theological readings across various texts and literary genres.
Theology and Literature after Postmodernity explores a
reconstructive approach to reading and literary study in the
university setting, with contributions from interdisciplinary
scholars worldwide.
