Overview

The T&T Clark Handbook of Colin Gunton is a theological companion to the study of Gunton's theology, and a resource for thinking about Gunton's importance in modern theology. Each of the essays brings Gunton's depth to a broad range of contemporary theological concerns. The volume unveils cutting-edge Gunton scholarship for a new generation and at the same time enables readers to see the timely significance of Gunton today. Each of the essays not only introduces readers to key themes in the Gunton corpus, but also provides readers with fresh interpretations that are fully conversant with the contemporary theological problems facing the church. Designed as both a guide for students and a reference point for scholars, the companion seeks both to outline the frameworks of key Gunton debates while at all times pushing forward fresh interpretative strategies concerning his thought.

Reviews

Colin Gunton was one of the most prolific and stimulating theologians of the late twentieth century. Provocative and controversial at times, he ranged widely across the Christian spectrum and inspired a generation of students and admirers, who have now dedicated a well-deserved tribute to his achievement. - Gerald Bray, Samford University, USA Colin Gunton was nothing if not provocative. Agree with him or disagree, he knew how to stir things up. The time is ripe for a major reassessment of his theological achievement, and this Handbook is an admirable place to start. - George Hunsinger, Princeton Theological Seminary, USA An outstanding list of contributors introduces us to Gunton's work with sympathy, astute critique, and an eye to the ongoing implications of his work. This volume is both a tribute to Gunton and an invitation to continue the kind of robust theological dialogue that he encouraged. - Suzanne McDonald, Western Theological Seminary, USA
