Product Description
Initiation Into Theology – The Rich Variety of Theology and Hermeneutics
Authors: S Maimela, A König
Format: Physical Hardcopy
A rich variety of theologies and hermeneutics is reflected in this publication – unquestionably the first kind in the Western World.
The editors, very diligently, succeeded in drawing contributions from all over Africa and by doing so, ensured a strong African emphasis in this book. They furthermore succeeded in combining theology and hermeneutics in a logical way – easy to understand by students and preachers alike.
In Section A the entire spectrum of theology is covered - from Biblical Theology through Black Theology, Feminist Theology, African Theology, and more, to the theological challenge of other religious traditions.
Section B focuses on the hermeneutical principles which are concomitant with the theological traditions discussed in Section A.
Contributions from all sections of theology and hermeneutics are used to initiate newcomers and experienced students into the rich variety of theology.
