About The Book

Comparative theology is a field with a lineage as long as the earliest efforts by believers to engage understand learn from and critique other religions. In the 1980s and 1990s scholars revived the field as timely in light of todays religious diversity. They have given it some new characteristics tried new methods and argued for fresh implications and thus in a real sense reinvented the discipline affording new energy to the study of religions in practice and in the particular without undue a priori attention to theoretical presuppositions and issues of method. Now younger theologians in different traditions have further interrogated its presumptions and practices and brought it into conversation with post-colonialism gender studies ethnographic research and a (re)turn to theologies of religious pluralism. This thematic issue focuses on the European context to see how this new field has been received understood and critiqued among scholars writing in Europe.
