Recenzii
McIntosh stimulates Reformed theologians to examine and appropriate the overlooked mystical elements in their own tradition.
The book would be successful as a basis for a graduate seminar, but undergraduates could also benefit from the way that the book does not become overly technical in laying out the notion, history, or significance of thinking about God's ideas.
McIntosh's erudition is impressive and his contribution to theology and philosophy significant.
For McIntosh, immersion in the theological tradition concerning the "divine ideas" was not merely an academic exercise, but a matter of burning actuality.
In The Divine Ideas, McIntosh marshals an array of Christian thinkers— from Origen and Augustine, through Maximus the Confessor and John Scotus Eriugena, to Aquinas and Bonaventure
McIntosh makes absorbing Christian theological arguments rooted in the so-called divine ideas tradition, and he makes a powerful bid for the relevance of this tradition.
This is a stellar essay on a neglected topic....McIntosh leaves behind a significant theological and pastoral legacy and this final book proves to be a fitting capstone to his life and work.
