Alexander J. Hughes

Oliver Quick and the Quest for a Christian Metaphysic (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Now almost forgotten, Oliver Chase Quick (1885-1944) was one of the foremost and most widely read British theologians of his day. The first major study of his work, this book gives extensive attention to Quick's understanding of the task of theology, his christology, sacramental theology and doctrine of God. Expanding the narrative of twentieth-century historical theology, Hughes draws conclusions about longer-term shifts in English theology in the last century, making a particular case for the persistence and vitality of a philosophically oriented Anglican theology in the face of neo-orthodoxy and philosophical positivism.
