| Summary: | What is theology's place and status, in a thoroughly changed culture and society, in the domains to which it has traditionally belonged: the university, Church and society? Lieven Boeve presents a very clear and readable account of aspects of the contemporary situation as it appears to a mainstream university theologian in the Roman Catholic tradition in Europe. This stimulating collection of essays shows a continuous and coherent argument about the way in which theology is to position itself in relation to church, academy and society - and puts an emphasis on the need for a dialogue between these three spheres for theology to flourish. The essays are divided into three parts that eloquently unfold Lieven Boeve's argument. The book ends with a thoughtful overview of the reasons for Pope Benedict XVI resignation |
