The Peaceable Kingdom – A Primer in Christian Ethics
Autor Stanley Hauerwasen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 aug 1991
Stanley Hauerwas presents an overall introduction to the themes and method that have distinguished his vision of Christian ethics. Emphasizing the significance of Jesus’ life and teaching in shaping moral life, The Peaceable Kingdom stresses the narrative character of moral rationality and the necessity of a historic community and tradition for morality.

Recenzii
Hauerwas has written a deeply challenging book that anyone seriously concerned with the authenticity of Christian ethics must read.”
“A concise and provocative discussion of the nature of ethics. . . . Hauerwas speaks of the importance of testing our skills against the excellences of others. Reading his book provides just such a test.”
“The most systematic presentation yet of Hauerwas’s decidedly practical agenda. It is an excellent place to begin reading.”
“In this brief book Stanley Hauerwas, one of the most prolific writers in Christian ethics of his generation, sets forth his clearest, most readable, and most cogent statement to date of his own perspective on how ethics should be done in a Christian context.”
