Black's New Testament Commentaries

Simon Perry contributes a new addition to the renowned Black's New Testament Commentary series, with his new work on the Gospel of St. Luke. The key questions for scholars and students of Luke are comprehensively scrutinized, with examinations of questions of historicity, the use of historical traditions and sources, the relationship of Luke to other Gospel books in the New Testament, and its reception. Perry analyses these issues in order to present the heart of the academic debate to a wider audience.

Ashgate Keeling Series in Ancient Philosophy

Two major works on ethics have come down to us under Aristotle's name, the Nicomachean Ethics and the Eudemian Ethics, but, quite unjustifiably, the Eudemian Ethics has been largely neglected by students of ancient philosophy. This important collection of essays from the sixth Keeling colloquium on ancient philosophy tries to rectify this one-sided approach to Aristotle's ethics by focusing on the positions and arguments of the Eudemian Ethics. As the essays demonstrate, Aristotle's views in the Eudemian Ethics frequently differ in interesting and surprising ways from those found in the Nicomachean Ethics and deserve study for their own sake, not merely for purposes of comparison with the Nicomachean Ethics. The contributors include some of the best known Aristotle scholars of the present day. Christopher Rowe and Jennifer Whiting investigate the Eudemian Ethics' account of friendship (philia) while M.M. McCabe examines the closely related issue of self-knowledge in EE VII.12. Stephen White analyzes the Eudemian Ethics' account of eudaimonia, David Charles focuses on voluntary action, and Friedemann Buddensiek investigates Aristotle's difficult discussion of good fortune (eutuchia) in EE VIII.2. The volume also contains critical discussions of these papers provided by commentators, who, along with Whiting and McCabe, include Julia Annas and Sarah Broadie.

Explorations in Practical, Pastoral and Empirical Theology

Theological reflection lies at the heart of practical theology. There is an increasingly robust collection of literature focusing on it. However, little attention has been given to what reflection is or what it looks like when practised 'theologically'. This gap may account for some of the ongoing uncertainty on the part of practitioners of every sort: those engaged in ministry, teachers and students of practical theology, and 'every day' Christians aspiring to make meaning of their experience in a way that is faithful to the Christian tradition. This book provides an exploration of theological reflection from a foundation of adult education in general and experiential learning theory in particular. Reflection as a way of making meaning from experience is integral to experiential learning theory and the book argues that reflection and learning have a symbiotic relationship. Reflection should therefore be understood and its processes examined from this perspective. The early chapters provide the important educational foundations. Literature on theological reflection is then scrutinised through this lens, before the findings of an empirical study are presented which reveal how individuals went about reflecting theologically in an educational context. The analysis of both theory and empirical data allows a range of pointers to emerge about what theological reflection looks like in practice and what features influence the procedures adopted. Two penultimate chapters are provided by academic practitioners who respond to the overall discussion by reflecting on the implications for their practice. The final chapter draws the threads together and indicates how the volume has contributed to practical theology's understanding of theological reflection in general.

Politics in the Book of Haggai

Commonly known as Dalits, or Untouchables, Paraiyar Christians are a large socially marginalised group living in India within a dynamic and complex social matrix dominated by the caste system. This book presents a detailed exploration of Paraiyar communities, focusing on their religious and cultural identity and examining their worldview within the dominant 'Hindu' religious worldview. Exploring Dalits' wider social context and boundaries, ascribed and achieved identity, and the use of religious symbolism and ritual, this book highlights various tensions and areas of creativity among Paraiyar Christians and how they negotiate their lives within a hierarchical system. Anderson Jeremiah argues that the category 'religion' is inadequate, and he sheds light on the complexity of religious belief in marginalised indigenous communities. This inter-disciplinary, socio-ethonographic study of Dalit Christian community presents a significant anthropological study of Christianity as it is lived out in the grass roots of a marginalised society.

Routledge Studies in Theology, Imagination and the Arts

The creative act, claims Nicolas Berdyaev, is a prefiguration of the end of the world. To what extent is fiction an exploration of the ultimate ends of humanity - of heaven, hell, death and judgement? And how do modern authors use the literary resources of eschatological imaginings in their storytelling? In this careful yet suggestive study, Greg Clarke explores the eschatological underpinnings of modern fiction. Drawing on the work of Ernst Bloch, Jurgen Moltmann, Jacques Derrida and Frank Kermode, Clarke outlines the way in which literature employs apocalyptic imagery, narrative structures and eschatological themes such as hope, glory, salvation and justice. Through a detailed study of the novels of pre-eminent Australian author Patrick White, a new eschatological approach to criticism emerges, where 'ultimate interests' become a reading lens and a key to understanding the creative impulse.
