Ecumenical Perspectives Five Hundred Years After Luther’s Reformation, Paperback / softback Book

Ecumenical Perspectives Five Hundred Years After Luther’s Reformation Paperback / softback

Edited by Gerard Mannion, Dennis M. Doyle, Theodore G. Dedon

Part of the Pathways for Ecumenical and Interreligious Dialogue series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book offers ecumenical essays that focus on Reformation Christianity and on current Lutheran-Catholic understandings and relationships.

It addresses important issues, including the meaning of the Reformation, the reception of Luther in Germany and beyond, contemporary ecumenical dialogues, and pathways to the future.

There is also some inclusion of Jewish and Orthodox traditions as well as attention to global issues.

Taken as a whole, the primary method of this book is theology informed by history, hermeneutics, ethics, and social theory.

Within the structure of the book can be found the classic hermeneutical circle:  What was the meaning of the Reformation for Luther in his own time?

What are various ways in which Luther and the Reformation have been interpreted in history?  How does knowledge of these things help us today to understand the Reformation and to move forward?
