Theology as Repetition

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Originating in a series of conversations, this book exemplifies the method of 'doing theology' that is at the heart of this seminal international scholar's philosophy. Using it as a means of bridging the gap between the Christian faith tradition and postmodern secularism, a basis is provided for addressing the crises that address us today. Macquarrie provides foundations by retrieving the tradition, but leaves us with pertinent questions to pursue."
Vincent Strudwick, University of Oxford

"In this important work, Foster revives Macquarrie's theology for the twenty-first century. He shows Macquarrie to be a master in engaging with postmodern trends in theology, bringing to them an intelligence that obviates the more relativist and nihilist outcomes of some postmodern thought. While guiding the reader through complex comparisons and contrasts with key thinkers, Foster convinces us that Macquarrie could be put to good use in developing a Christian theology that engages with the plurality of faiths, and that provides a strong antidote to fundamentalist religion with its over-reliance on rational and empirical support."
Harriet Harris, University of Edinburgh
