Beschreibung
This imaginative study rethinks the nature of theology and its role in universities. * The author sketches out a fascinating project using examples from US and UK institutions, whereby theology becomes a transformative force within universities. * Imagines what a Christian university, in which all disciplines have been theologized, would look like. * Feeds into discussions about the religious identity of denominationally-linked colleges and universities. * Forms part of a wider attempt to imagine a vital public role for theology that enables it to serve both the Church and the wider community.

"D'Costa sets out his argument with clarity and skill ... An important book, relevant not only for discussions about the future of theology in the academy but of religion in public life."

"A powerful and serious theological argument - essential reading for anyone who wants to think seriously about the future of universities in the west, and most especially, in these troubled times, about the relevance of the practice and study of religion to what the west may become."
--Paul J. Griffiths, University of Illinois
"In this timely work, Gavin D'Costa has caught the post-liberal/post-conservative wave sweeping over English-language theology. Picking up on Alisdair MacIntyre's suggestion that a pluralism of rival universities would foster real difference better than pluralistic universities, he argues for a strong-case Catholic university. Such a university would require both ecclesial theology and theological religious studies. In this book, D'Costa performs both. His treatment of theology, its relation to prayer and exegesis, and its place in the university will energize readers who are tired of the same old theological thing."
--William L. Portier, University of Dayton
