Description
Summary:Recent efforts to contextualise Australian theology need to be the subject of critical dialogue between Catholic and Protestant theologians. In a spirit of postmodernity, the author critiques the methodology of Tony Kelly's A new imagining, and then moves on to propose elements of an alternative methodology which draws upon the theology of Karl Barth. A recent work by Norman Habel, This land is mine, promises a rich contextual reflection, and the method here proposed is applied to theological issues emerging from this study to outline a way forward for Australian contextualising.
