Description

Academic theologians, when they write, normally decide for themselves what to discuss.

Admittedly, these days, they may work under pressure, to ensure tenure, to advance their prospects, or to secure funding for a departmental project.

Mostly, however, they work, sometimes for years, on the books which consolidate the vision of theology that has energised their teaching.

Sometimes, of course, the contingencies of being invited to review a book, or take part in a conference, lead to what for medieval theologians were 'quodlibets'- responses to 'whatever', topics raised by members of the class during open-ended discussions, sometimes unexpected, even random, treated suggestively rather than fully worked out.

This volume is a miscellany of just such papers, a wide ranging collection of papers from books and journals with a strong philosophical leaning.
