Good and Evil: Quaker Perspectives de Jackie Leach Scully

Good and Evil: Quaker Perspectives

Autor Jackie Leach Scully Editat de Pink Dandelion
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 iun 2007
In this multi-disciplinary collection we ask the question, 'What did, and do, Quakers think about good and evil?' There are no simple or straightforwardly uniform answers to this, but in this collection, we draw together contributions that for the first time look at historical and contemporary Quakerdom's approach to the ethical and theological problem of evil and good. Within Quakerism can be found Liberal, Conservative, and Evangelical forms. This book uncovers the complex development of metaethical thought by a religious group that has evolved with an unusual degree of diversity. In doing so, it also points beyond the boundaries of the Religious Society of Friends to engage with the spectrum of thinking in the wider religious world.

Recenzii

’... the contributors certainly achieve what they set out to do: this is to look at both historical and contemporary approaches to ideas about good and evil, from a purely Quaker perspective.’ The Friend

Descriere

In this multi-disciplinary collection we ask the question, "What did, and do, Quakers think about good and evil?" There are no simple or straightforwardly uniform answers to this, but in this collection, we draw together contributions that for the first time look at historical and contemporary Quakerdom's approach to the ethical and theological problem of evil and good. Within Quakerism can be found Liberal, Conservative, and Evangelical forms. This book uncovers the complex development of metaethical thought by a religious group that has evolved with an unusual degree of diversity. In doing so, it also points beyond the boundaries of the Religious Society of Friends to engage with the spectrum of thinking in the wider religious world.
