Summary: | This is a collection of thirteen essays offered in honour of Nicholas Lash, Norris-Hulse Professor of Divinity at the University of Cambridge for twenty-one years from 1978. There are three main sections to the work. Four essays review the current, post-Enlightenment ‘shape of the field’ in theology and religious studies. Two groups of four essays then follow, looking respectively at themes in the study of faith (God, love, Scripture, and worship) and at ethical practice in, and in relation to, the study of religion (argument, reconciliation, friendship, and justice). A multi-authored response ends the collection., The collection is stimulating, even if failing to constitute the ‘complex unity’ claimed for it in the final chapter (p. 208). |
