Short description:
This book offers clear, careful readings of modernism's key figures?including Kant, Hegel, and Schleiermacher?in order to explain their relevance to practical concerns and to contemporary understandings of faith.
MoreLong description:
Modernism's theological project was an attempt to explain two things: firstly, how faith might enable persons to experience their lives as hanging together, even in the face of disintegrating forces like injustice, tragedy, and luck; and secondly, how one could see such faith, and so a life held together by it, as self-expressive.
Modern theologians such as Kant, Schleiermacher, Hegel, Ritschl, and Tillich thus offer accounts of how one's life would have to hang together such that one could identify with it; of the oppositions which stand in the way of such hanging-together; of God as the one by whom oppositions are overcome, such that one can have faith that one's life ultimately hangs together; and of what such faith would have to be like in order for one to identify with it, too. So understood, modern theology not only sheds light on faith's potential role in enabling persons to identify with their lives, but stands in unexpected continuity with contemporary 'contextual' theologies.
This book offers clear, careful readings of modernism's key figures in order to explain their relevance to practical concerns and to contemporary understandings of faith.
Hector's readings of each of these figures are impressively clear, fluid, and sensitive to the many contexts and influences that shaped each thinker's way of approaching the problem. Hector is a skillful synthesizer, and there is something to be learned from each of his readings.
