The Oxford Handbook of Early Modern Theology, 1600-1800: Oxford Handbooks

Editat de Ulrich L. Lehner, Richard A. Muller, A. G. Roeber
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 ian 2020
The Oxford Handbook of Early Modern Theology, 1600-1800 offers a comprehensive and reliable introduction to Christian theological literature originating in Western Europe from, roughly, the end of the French Wars of Religion (1598) to the Congress of Vienna (1815). Using a variety of approaches, the contributors examine theology spanning from Bossuet to Jonathan Edwards. They review the major forms of early modern theology, such as Cartesian scholasticism, Enlightenment, and early Romanticism; sketch the teachings of major theological concepts, along with important historical developments; introduce the principal practitioners of each kind of theology and delineate their particular theological contributions and stresses; and depict the engagement by early modern theologians with other religions or churches, such Judaism, Islam, and the eastern Church. Combining contributions from top scholars in the field, this is an invaluable resource for understanding a complex and varied body of research.

Recenzii

Not only will scholars and researchers of the early modern period benefit from the richly documented summaries offered here but the Handbook will also provide graduate students and others curious about this era with an excellent view of the concerns and contours of the current state of research.
This is a 'must have' for anyone working in the field.
[T]his Oxford Handbook will be a valuable reference tool for any scholar interested in Christianity in the early modern world [T]he handbook is the first attempt to survey this critical period and should be saluted as such.
This volume is useful primarily for the breadth of material it covers. It provides substantial overview of Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Reformed, and dissenting traditions. The essays are clear and introductory enough to be useful for beginning students while remaining helpful reference sources for established scholars.
[T]he editors have produced an impressive volume both in scope and in size, assembled an impressive roster of authors, and allowed considerable freedom to each.
The Oxford Handbook of Early Modern Theology is an impressively wide-ranging and detailed volume that packs a huge amount into less than seven hundred pages. As a result, it will almost certainly be a key point of reference for scholars and students of both theology and early modern history for quite some time.
'Current', 'perceptive,' 'comprehensive,' 'definitive,' 'essential,' 'unique' and 'provocative' are all descriptors legitimately applied to this outstanding resource...This handbook deserves a spot on the library reserved reference shelves of all theological schools and universities. Undergraduate schools that take religious studies and theology at all seriously should find a spot for it there as well. Any teacher in Western humanities working in this period would benefit greatly from consulting it often and is encouraged to acquire a personal copy, as are theological graduate students. The book is absorbing and fascinating as well as reliable and superbly done. Just watch how frequently it will be cited in coming years."-James A. DeJong, Calvin Theological Journal
While this work touches cross confessional traditions, students of Reformed Orthodoxy in particular cannot afford to be without this book. It is a scholarly benchmark that provides us with most of the tools that we need to engage in serious study. Its chapters contain an almost complete library of relevant issues to early modern theology across confessional lines. This book will greatly help students, pastors, and scholars as they continue to plumb the depths of our catholic Christian heritage. This is likely the single most important resource available to date to help us do so."-Ryan McGraw, Meet the Puritans Blog
This excellent volume provides a comprehensive introduction to Christian theological literature in western Europe through two important and yeasty centuries . this is a splendid collaborative effort that introduces wide and complex perspectives that will make this a standard guide and reference work for years to come.
More than 40 specialists from both sides of the Atlantic have distilled an enormous amount of detail in brief essays...Recommended.
No doubt, this volume is an excellent handbook for theologians and students who want to understand the early modern period, especially those looking for an understanding of the neglected theological movements and authors. Anyone wanting to understand the modern theology and contemporary issues, not only in Western Europe but also in other parts of the world, cannot ignore The Oxford Handbook of Early Modern Theology which concisely offers a huge amount of resources in less than seven hundred pages.
