Part 2. Applying A Reconstructive Hermeneutics To Contemporary Discourses

Additional Info
Francis Schussler Fiorenza is one of the pivotal contemporary Roman Catholics working in systematic theology. Terence Bateman provides an overview of Fiorenza’s theological biography and explicates the major contours of Fiorenza’s vital contributions to theological method, foundational, systematic and constructive theology, and the practical function of religion in society and politics. As Bateman argues, Fiorenza’s vision is one of unrivaled clarity and coherence; even more, it follows a path of the shifting patterns in theology over the past half century, thus shedding light upon the internal constitution of recent Catholic and Protestant theology.
