Abstract

"Il pensiero di Edward Schillebeeckx si inserisce a pieno titolo nella teologia politica, egli infatti prende sul serio la sfida di ripensare la fede e la tradizione cristiana alla luce della concreta esperienza dei credenti, un'esperienza che per sua natura è connotata dalle situazioni sociali, economiche e culturali in cui essi vivono. In questo incontro tra tradizione di fede e vissuto personale si aprono dissonanze ogni volta che le promesse del Regno sembrano essere smentite da sofferenza e ingiustizia. Ma proprio in questo contrasto si apre la migliore occasione perché il soggetto possa sperimentare la forza del Vangelo: là dove la sua coscienza non può accettare di rassegnarsi passivamente alle forze della storia, l'uomo si sente chiamato ad agire in modo profetico, opponendosi al male e anticipando la realizzazione di quei germi di bene che intuisce pur senza comprenderli pienamente. In un cammino mai concluso, la sequela di Cristo conduce quindi il credente a dare forme sempre nuove alla sua fede, inserendole - non senza attriti - nel vissuto sociale e nella tradizione della comunità ecclesiale a cui appartiene."--

Abstract

"What happens when Edward Schillebeeckx's theology crosses paths with contemporary public theology? This volume examines the theological heritage that Schillebeeckx has left behind, as well as it critically assesses its relevance for temporary theological scene. In tracing the way(s) in which Schillebeeckx observed and examined his own context's increasing secularization and concomitant development toward atheism, the contributors to this volume indicate the potential directions for a contemporary public theology that pursues the path which Schillebeeckx has trodden. The essays in the first part of this volume indicate a different theological self-critique undertaken in response to developments in the public sphere. This is followed by a thorough examination of the degree to which Schillebeeckx succeeded in leading Christian theology ahead without merely accommodating the Christian tradition to current societal trends. The third part of the volume discusses the issues of climate change, social conceptions of progress, as well as the evolutionary understandings of the origins and purpose of religions. The final part examines Schillebeeckx's soteriology to contemporary discussions about wholeness."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

What are contemporary theologys challenges? What are its fruitful approaches? Who are its promising contributors? The contributions to this collection of essays try to find answers to these questions by making references to the Dutch Dominican scholar Edward Schillebeeckx, using his theology as a starting point for an up-to-date investigation and discussion. The theological work of Edward Schillebeeckx marks the transition from a pre-modern to a modern approach to Christian faith, Church, and theology. Already more than two generations of theologians have been trained in dialogue with his thou

Abstract

Christiane Alpers discusses the contribution and role Christian theology plays in developing of the democratic life in post-Christendom societies. She discusses the three major approaches to this debate – public theology, Radical Orthodoxy, and post-liberal Protestantism – in order to illustrate the shared assumption that such an enhancement should be understood in terms of solving existing political problems. The volume builds on and combines public theology's aspiration to craft a non-triumphant political theology, fit for a post-Christendom context, Radical Orthodoxy's hesitancy to embrace secularism as neutral centre for present democracies; as well as post-liberalism's Christocentric outlook. Alpers engages with a wide variety of thinkers, such as John Milbank, Graham Ward, John Howard Yoder, Kathryn Tanner and Edward Schillebeeckx; to suggest that a political theology in the post-Christendom context could build on the faith that Christ alone has redeemed the whole world.
