Book
Paper Back. Condition: New. A remarkable study that proceeds from the conviction that when theology is doing its job, it will of necessity be pastoral theology, forming and shaping the character of its readers and hearers. Interacting with literary critics such as Wayne Booth, Martha Nussbaum, and Richard Eldridge, and appreciative of the insights they have to offer concerning the character-shaping power of literature, Charry recognizes a crucial lack in their theories: God. This lack is shared, in Charry's view, even by most of modern (and postmodern) theology, with its nervous obsession with the foundations of knowledge in the face of Enlightenment critiques. In order to return to a situation where ''evangelism, catechesis, moral exhortation, dogmatic exegesis, pastoral care, and apologetics were all happening at the same time,'' before modern theology ''moved away from primary Christian beliefs and focused on theological method,'' Charry offers nine case-studies of theologians who unfolded their teaching in the classical mode -- the wisdom of God being shared in order to transform human lives: Paul, the Sermon on the Mount, Athanasius, Basil the Great, Augustine, Anselm, Aquinas, Julian of Norwich, and Calvin. Drawing and expanding upon the work of Rowan Greer (Broken Lights and Mended Lives), Charry has presented us with a theme and a nuanced analysis of orthodox theology that deserves to become a touchstone in any discussion of the method and purpose of Christian instruction, catechetical or otherwise.
