Reason and Faith: Themes from Richard Swinburne

Editat de Michael Bergmann, Jeffrey E. Brower
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 ian 2016
The past fifty years have been an enormously fruitful period in the field of philosophy of religion, and few have done more to advance its development during this time than Richard Swinburne. His pioneering work in philosophy of religion is distinguished, not only for the way in which it systematically develops a comprehensive set of positions within this field, but also for the way in which it builds on and contributes to contemporary work in other fields, such as metaphysics, epistemology, and philosophy of science.This volume presents a collection of ten new essays in philosophy of religion that develop and critically engage themes from Swinburne's work. Written by some of the leading figures in the field, these essays focus on issues in both natural theology (dealing with what can be known about God and his relation to the world independently of any particular religious tradition or revelation) and philosophical theology (reflecting critically on the doctrines associated with particular religious traditions). The first six essays address topics familiar from natural theology (faith, theistic arguments, and divine power). The last four essays address topics bearing on philosophical theology (atonement, liturgy, immortality, and the nature of body and soul).

Recenzii

This collection is written, edited, and copyedited well, and each chapter succeeded in holding my interest ... upper division undergraduates, graduate students, and specialists in philosophy of religion, it will be helpful as a survey of responses by many of Richard Swinburne's venerable academic peers to important positions and arguments he has offered during his impressive and influential career.
a fitting tribute to a remarkable intellectual career ... this collection makes an excellent companion to the work of Swinburne ... the essays would be suitable for use in both graduate and undergraduate level teaching.
