History and Eschatology by Nt Wright
Building on his critically acclaimed Gifford Lectures, N. T. Wright presents a richly nuanced case for a theology that is based on a renewed understanding of historical knowledge, and in particular of the historical Jesus.
'In this extraordinary reappraisal of the traditions of natural theology, NT. Wright deploys his intellectual energy with surprising punch to address. . . the fundamental problems posed for theology by modernity. Critics may be provoked, but fans will be delighted.’ -- Frances Young, OBE, FBA, Emeritus Professor of Theology, University of Birmingham
‘A creative and arresting contribution to natural theology, this book argues for the plausibility of the Christian vision of the relation between God and the world by taking seriously the history of Jesus Christ.’ -- Miroslav Volf, Professor of Theology, Yale University
‘A tour de force, placing history – and Jesus himself! – back at the heart of natural theology. -- John Behr, Regius Professor of Humanity, University of Aberdeen
‘An impressive and timely publication. . . Bold, lively, and accessible, it will generate widespread discussion.’ -- David Fergusson, OBE, FBA, FRSE, Professor of Divinity, University of Edinburgh
‘This powerfully argued book deserves to rank as Tom Wright’s crowning achievement.’ -- John Cottingham, Professor of Philosophy of Religion, Roehampton University
