Beskrivning
In Theology as Improvisation, Nathan Crawford reimagines the possibilities for how theology thinks God within a postmodern world. He argues that theology is improvisation by analyzing the nature of attunement within theological thinking and how this opens certain possibilities for theology. He does so by engaging a number of thinkers, including Martin Heidegger, Jacques Derrida, David Tracy, and Saint Augustine. He navigates the nature of thinking God in a postmodern world by using these thinkers to offer critiques of onto-theological thinking and totalizing systems while also following their embrace of the fragment and focus upon the nature of thinking as attunement. The result is a unique way of approaching theological thinking in our contemporary context.

Recensioner i media

Nathan Crawford is attuned to contemporary philosophical and theological trends and invites reconsideration of the theological task according to the improvisational character discernible in historical and contemporary exemplars. Even those uncomfortable with the theological open-endedness nurtured by his proposal can counter-argue their case only by attunement to and improvisational engagement with the rhythms, movements, and cadences of this excellent first book.Amos Yong, J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology, Regent University, Virginia Beach, USA
