{"product_id":"contemporary-christologies-a-fortress-introduction","title":"Contemporary Christologies: A Fortress Introduction","description":"While many know of the signal contributions of such twentieth-century giants as Paul Tillich or Karl Barth or Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, the important work since their time often goes unremarked until some major controversy erupts. Here is a smart and helpful survey of the chief approaches and thinkers in today's understanding of the person, significance, and work of Jesus Christ.\nSchweitzer offers an insightful introduction to the contemporary context of Christology, in which basic questions in the discipline (and soteriology) are being rethought in light of globalization, postmodernity, and the contemporary experience of evil. He then offers a kind of typology of the current approaches and voices:\nJesus, Revealer of God (like the Gospel of John): Karl Rahner, Dorothee Soelle, Roger Haight\nJesus, a Moral Exemplar (like Abelard): Rosemary Radford Ruether, Mark Lewis Taylor, Carter Heyward\nJesus as Victor (like Origen): Luis Pedraja, James Cone, Elizabeth Johnson\nJesus as Representative (like Anselm): Douglas John Hall, Marilyn McCord Adams, Jurgen Moltmann\nJesus as Source of Openness (like Francis of Assisi): Raimon Panikkar, John B. Cobb, Jacques Dupuis\nSchweitzer's volume concludes with a reflection on the recent past and present imperatives of a discipline that virtually defines what Christianity has to offer the present age.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0800664639\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0800664639.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Schweitzer, Don\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
