| Summary: | Two incompatible trends have characterized contemporary systematic theological work. On the one hand, consistency with the broad Christian tradition has grown as a methodological desideratum, especially through the work of theological retrieval. On the other hand, theologians who turn their attention to gender maintain that it cannot look to Christian history for salutary resources. Can a theologian interested in giving an account of gender utilize the recognizable virtues of systematic theology? This article argues that it is possible. By retrieving doctrines that implicate gender, a theologian can be both catholic and sensitive to the right inheritance of the Christian tradition. |
