Description
Summary:Limitedin its terms of reference and specific in its discussion, this volume of essays explores the debate between theology and religious studies within higher education, primarily, though by no means exclusively in the UK. It developed from a conference in Oxford in 2006 sponsored by the Higher Education Academy Subject Centre for Philosophical and Religious Studies. What emerges is not simply another volume of conference papers but a fascinating, coherent and highly readable book which is of interest to anyone concerned with not only this particular debate within the academy but also the whole nature of higher education in the arts today in our multicultural societies, and the question of the pursuit of interdisciplinarity.
