The Edinburgh Critical History of Twentieth-Century Christian Theology

This volume re-examines the history of twentieth-century Christian theology by tracing key concepts, problems and themes as they develop in context with new perspectives opened up by contemporary theology itself. The ambition is to illuminate the context, dynamism and complexities of its traditions and in doing so to offer a critical and creative ressourcement for contemporary theologians. The range of international contributors to this volume inquire afresh into the preoccupations, problems, provocations and prospects of Christian theology in the century just past to ask anew about just what in this recent history matters and why.
