Summary: | There was a time when the study of music seemed, at best, a fringe phenomenon in the interdisciplinary engagement between theology and the arts. Although constantly accompanying religious practices and recurrently associated with widely spiritual sentiments, music loomed awkwardly at the horizon of theologians uneasy within the infamously hazardous fields of its meaning, theory and performance practice. With this substantial anthology, bringing together 17 essays by an extraordinary cast of Anglophone theologians, philosophers and musicologists, editors Jeremy Begbie and Steven Guthrie prove those days to be a bygone age. |
