Soft cover. Condition: New. Summary:"This collection of essays boldly challenges the liberal hegemony of higher education. Critiquing the current literature on church-based education for assuming the "naturalness" of liberal categories, these essays present a tantalizing thought experiment that wholly reimagines Christian univer…sity education. Essays on the roles of theology, scripture, the sciences, and the humanities "deconstruct the distinctions between fact (science), value (humanities), and application (professional studies) in order to articulate how the politics of the church transvalue such distinctions into the formation of a peaceable kingdom." Contents: How many masters? : from the church-related to an ecclesially based university / John Wright Sailing under true colors : academic freedom and the ecclesially based university / William Cavanaugh The house of mirth and a rebuke of false wisdom : a case for women's studies / Amy Laura Hall Hotel or home? : hospitality and higher education / Elizabeth Newman The last of the last : theology in the church / John Milbank Love your enemies : the life sciences in the ecclesially based university / Therese Lysaught The place of the natural sciences in an ecclesially based university / Jonathan Wilson The humanities within an ecclesially based university : return to reading greats / Scott Moore Who invited mammon? : professional education in the Christian college and university / Robert Brimlow The role of scripture in an ecclesially based university / Stephen Fowl Moving beyond muddled missions and misleading metaphors : the formation and vocation of students within an ecclesially based university / Michael Cartwright With friends like these : pathetic chaplaincy and the ethos of the ecclesial college / Wes Avram Assessing what doesn't exist : reflections on the impact of an ecclesially based university / Michael L.
