Description
Summary:Charles Miller hopes his study of Hooker's theology will help to extend his ‘creative legacy into our age and beyond’. Hooker, Miller argues, stood unhesitatingly in the Reformation tradition, but, within a diffuse Calvinist atmosphere and a growing culture of anti-Puritanism, he was able to define belief and practice for his own generation., Miller is certainly right that, since we are not offered a fully articulated ‘system of scientific divinity’, it has been much easier to interpret Hooker in diverse ways.
