Zusatztext Shelli M. Poe offers us a Schleiermacher for today. Creatively reinterpreting central elements of his theology in deep conversation with feminist, womanist, queer, ecotheological, and other perspectives, The Constructive Promise of Schleiermacher’s Theology delivers what it promises: a joyous (and much-needed) engagement with a theologian of joy. Informationen zum Autor Shelli M. Poe is Visiting Professor at Iliff School of Theology, USA. Vorwort This book argues that Schleiermacher's theology holds great promise for constructive theologies - particularly for feminist, womanist, mujerista, queer, ecological and ecumenical theologies. Zusammenfassung This volume demonstrates how Friedrich Schleiermacher’s thought can be used to address contemporary doctrinal refinement and development. Taking a constructive approach, Shelli M. Poe weaves Schleiermacher’s theology together with current scholarship in feminism, womanism, ecotheology, and queer theology. While Schleiermacher is widely acclaimed as the progenitor of modern theology, Poe is one of the first to use his work as a springboard to refine contemporary doctrine. This book demonstrates the promise of Schleiermacher’s mature work for contemporary constructive forms of theology. Inhaltsverzeichnis IntroductionA.
