Originating in a conference held in Oxford in 2014, the book contains 16 original contributions from a mixture of junior and more established scholars, most of whom have a connection to Britain. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe contributions are diverse, but four themes emerge throughout the volume. Several essays are concerning with a characterisation of Tillich's theology. In dialogue with recent emphases on the radical Tillich, some essays suggest a more conservative estimation of Tillich's theology, rooted in the Idealist and classical Christian platonic traditions, whilst in constant engagement with changing existential situations. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSecondly, and perhaps reflecting the context of religious diversity and theories of religious pluralism in Britain, many essays engage Tillich's approach to non-Christian religions. Thirdly, some essays address the importance of existentialist philosophy for Tillich, notably via an engagement with Sartre. Finally, a number of essays take up the diagnostic potential of Tillich's theology as a resource for engaging contemporary challenges. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":57335436345688,"sku":"9783110532852","price":99.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9783110532852.jpg?v=1779282079","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/returning-to-tillich","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
