- Title
RESURRECTION--INTERRUPTION--TRANSFORMATION: INCARNATION AS HERMENEUTICAL STRATEGY.
- Authors
Godzieba, Anthony J.; Boeve, Lieven; Saracino, Michele
- Abstract
Because of its commitment to the Incarnation and the Resurrection, Catholic theology is impelled to deal productively with the issues of embodiment and particularity. These have been noticeably absent in postmodern discussions of religious experience, which tend to be abstract, "dis-embodied," and dismissive of specific religious traditions. This symposium continues the important intervention of Catholic fundamental theology in these discussions, so that theology might respond more adequately to the embodied religious experience of Christians and the sacramental imagination of the Catholic tradition. The authors argue for the necessary employment of "incarnation" as a fundamental hermeneutical strategy, and apply it to issues in eschatology, theological anthropology, interreligious dialogue, and theological epistemology.
