Paperback. Condizione: New. This book grapples with the question of what a responsible engagement with the past entails, also for Christians and churches associated with the Reformed tradition. The history of Reformed churches in South Africa is, one can argue, a deeply divided and ambivalent one. The same figures are heroes to some and villains to others; historic events are deeply ambiguous and conflicting views surround different discourses. Yet the histories, and perhaps futures, of these churches and traditions are inextricably interwoven. Reforming Memory fundamentally combines an interest in the notion of "memory" with an interest in (South African) Reformed theology and history. Central is the question: how should we remember and represent the past responsibly? The essays collected in this book engage in different ways with this question, attending in the process to some episodes in the history of the Dutch Reformed Church, some influential Reformed theologians, and some important Reformed practices and confessional documents. …

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Redeeming Identity Robert Vosloo focuses upon recognition as a crucial theological category for engaging questions of human identity and personhood. In light of the identity-distorting realities of misrecognition and uneven recognition, Vosloo affirms the promise of interpersonal recognition for human flourishing and societal well-being. But Vosloo also acknowledges that some forms of recognition might presuppose rather than challenge inherent pathologies within oppressive contexts. With this ambivalence in mind, the book argues--with reference to some historical and fictional examples--for an embodied theology of reciprocal recognition with three emphases. Firstly, such an account indicates that in our relationship with others we need to recognize our common humanity and our particular identity traits. Secondly, it is justice-orientated and grace-tinted. It should thus be situated within the creative tension between structure and gesture, justice and grace. Thirdly, a responsible theology of recognition amplifies the fundamental importance of "being recognized" (by God and others) and how this engenders an ethics of gratitude that enables new ways of seeing and acting. Since the book traces some contours for a theology of recognition, it also engage with biblical texts containing recognition scenes and key theological themes such as the imago Dei, the doctrines of justification and election, and the sacraments. The book is about recognition as a crucial theological category. It argues for an embodied theology of recognition that emphasizes the need to recognize our common humanity and our particular identity traits within the tension between justice and grace, while also amplifying the importance of "being recognized" and an ethics of gratitude.

Paperback or Softback. Condizione: New. Bonhoeffer and the Responsibility for a Coming Generation: Doing Theology in a Time Out of Joint. Book.

Paperback. Condizione: New. This volume draws together a selection of high-quality presentations at the 13th International Bonhoeffer Congress held in January 2020 in Stellenbosch, South Africa. The theme of the conference was "How a coming generation is to go on living? Bonhoeffer and the response to our present crisis and hope." The selected essays engage thoroughly and creatively with this concern to take responsibility not only for our own personal and communal life in all of its complexity and richness but also for the ethos and society that future generations will inherit from us. The pertinence of Bonhoeffer's question is addressed in these contributions anew as we experience threats on a global level to socio-political, economic and inter-religious stability and solidarity. Attention is also given to some important challenges experienced in the so-called global South, and the reality of climate change and ecological devastation implies that the question of how future generations are going to go on living is linked to the fact that we live on a planet that is in jeopardy. Also included as an appendix is the powerful sermon preached by the South African Anglican archbishop of Cape Town Thabo Makgoba at the opening worship service of the congress.…
