Essays Catholic and Critical: By George P. Schner, SJ

Mark A. Husbands

A presentation of the most significant work of the highly esteemed theologian George Schner, who died in 2000. Gathering together his writing in the areas of theology and the philosophy of religion, it aims to offer a distinct contribution to our understanding of the prospects and perils of undertaking theology in the Christian tradition at the present juncture. Engaging key texts in philosophy of religion from the modern period, official Roman Catholic teaching related to the basis and doing of theology, and the work of key representatives of the so-called Yale School of post-liberal theology, the essays collected here seek to represent acute and historically informed judgement upon the problematique of the practice of contemporary theology. Drawing together a substantial body of work, the volume provides insight into key questions regarding theological method, the importance of modern philosophy of religion, the nature of theological discourse and contemporary Catholic theological reflection.
