Hardcover. Condition: Good. some shelfwear but still NICE! Standard-sized.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Sheila Greeve Davaney develops a bold new option in theology and religious reflection-pragmatic historicism-which emerges out of the historicist assumptions of human situatedness, particularity, and plurality that have come to characterize Western thought. The major theological attempts by postliberal and revisionist theology to incorporate these insights have failed to contend fully with the historicist challenge; Davaney's pragmatic historicism more clearly repudiates essentialism, universalism, and confessionalism. The theology that emerges is constructive and critical, resisting all forms of confessionalism without resorting to new forms of universalism. In its academic mode, it is interpreted not in opposition to religious studies, but as one subdiscipline within the study of religion whose major concerns are the identification, analysis, and critical reconstruction of religious ideas. As such it is a form of cultural analysis and criticism. The work includes a detailed exploration of the thought of philosophical pragmatists Richard Rorty, Cornel West, and Jeffrey Stout, and theologians Sallie McFague, John B. Cobb Jr., Gordon Kaufman, Delwin Brown, and William Dean, among others.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Changing Conversations defines the crucial role of cultural studies in the articulation and practice of religious studies disciplines. A decisive turn in the development of religious reflection, this volume seeks to redefine disciplinary self-understanding, and to promote religion as an integral component of cultural studies. Emphasizing a commitment to the marginalized perspectives--i.e. those communities lacking the resources to determine a new vision of society and so struggle to carve out their own space which more clearly embodies their own idiom, Changing Conversations presents insightful, authoritative contributions which show how religion is both embedded in and expressive of concrete social relationships and local realities. Featuring detailed cultural and political analyses, flavored with historical and feminist theory, Changing Conversations will inform every reader seeking to explore theology as a vital component of cultural studies.…
