Opis

Nathan Scott s Literary Criticism and Fundamental Theology reexamines the pioneering contribution of Nathan A. Scott, Jr. to the field of theology and literature. It both recalls Scott s achievement and suggests its continuing value by focusing on the question of Scott s method. Rather than following the traditional interpretation of Scott as a literary critic employing Paul Tillich s theology of culture, this book proposes that Scott s work is best understood as a form of fundamental theology. In doing so, it suggests that Scott s work models ways in which literary texts may be appropriately incorporated into theological discourse."
