The 20th and 21st Centuries have been characterized by theologians and philosophers rethinking theology and revitalizing the tradition. This unique anthology presents contributions from leading contemporary theologians - including Rowan Williams, Fergus Kerr, Aidan Nichols, G.R. Evans and Tracey Rowland - who offer portraits of over fifty key theological thinkers in the modern and postmodern era. Distinguished by its broad ecumenical perspective, this anthology spans arguably one of the most creative periods in the history of Christian theology and includes thinkers from all three Christian traditions: Protestant, Catholic and Orthodox. Each individual portrait in this anthology includes a biographical introduction, an overview of theological or philosophical writing, presentation of key thoughts, and contextual placing of the thinker within 20th Century religious discourse. Overview articles explore postmodern theology, radical orthodoxy, ecumenical theology, feminist theology, and liberation theology. A final section includes portraits of important thinkers who have influenced Christian thought from other fields, not least from Continental philosophy and literature.

Although these thinkers are no longer alive, their observations and ideas remainimportant and their throughts are still the subject of study today.How relevant are the writings of Origen to the aspirations of modern day Christians?To what extent was Athanasius influenced by the thoughts of Origen?What impact did Martin Luther have on Christianity in Northern Europe during the Renaissance?What did Immanuel Kant have to say about Christian thinking?Why has there been a recent resurgence in interest in Kierkegaard's work?Why has there been a recent decline in interest in Bultmann's work?Was Karl Barth the greatest theologian of the 20th century?What did Karl Rahner think of Hans Urs von Balthasar's ideas?

Each thinker is introduced with accessible background information, biographical details and date charts. There follows a helpful survey of their work, explaining their contribution to the spiritual heritage of today's church. This special omnibus edition includes the fourth century giant of faith, Augustine of Hippo; the spiritual and mystical Francis of Assisi, and Bonaventure, who was inspired by him. Two towering figures of the sixteenth century follow: the story of Thomas More--an outstanding example of personal and public integrity--and Martin Luther, the greatest leader of the Reformation.

Great Christian Thinkers is a concise, informative, amusing book, with everything one needs to know about the major theologians of the Christian Church over the past 2000 years. As a bonus, it gives a fascinating insight into the development of the Church and its theology. It answers the sort of questions that people who are not trained theologians might ask, in a way anybody can understand. Although some may say the Bible is so simple anyone can comprehend it, it is likewise so profound it challenges even the most brilliant minds. This book summarizes what some of the eminent intellects - conservative and liberal, alike - have thought about the Bible. Great Christian Thinkers can be used by a beginner or by an experienced theologian. It is both an invaluable aid for the student of theology and a helpful tool for the person in the pew. It will refresh the memory of the pastor working on a sermon. But most of all, it is an enlightening book that is informative . . . and fun. Includes introductions to over 70 theologians including: Richard Baxter Augustine of Hippo Dietrich Bonhoeffer Francis of Assisi Ignatious of Antioch Martin Luther King, Jr. Teresa of Avila John Wesley
