Description
Summary:Dialogical theology, socio-rhetorical interpretation, and scriptural reasoning are just three examples of approaches which set differing texts in conversation, often on an interdisciplinary basis. While frequently fascinating and insightful, such conversations are infinitely varied and give seemingly endless scope for discourses ranging from abstruseness and triviality to richness and depth., While such approaches to theology and Scripture have become more prevalent, theology has generally been slow to adopt the fragmentary form of discourse for its exploration of the divine. Where fragmentation or conversation have featured in theological debate, the form in which discussion has occurred has generally remained wedded to linear academic argument.
