Transforming Postliberal Theology:

George Lindbeck, Pragmatism and Scripture

Continuum International Publishing Group, Dec 1, 2005 - Religion - 166 pages

Postliberal theology is a movement in contemporary theologythat rejects both the Enlightenment appeal to a 'universal rationality' and theliberal assumption of an immediate religious experience common to all humanity.The movement initially began in the 1980's with its association to YaleDivinity School. Theologians such as Hans Frei, Paul Holmer, David Kelsey, andGeorge Lindbeck were influential and were significantly influenced bytheologians such as Karl Barth, Clifford Geertz, and Ludwig Wittgenstein.Postliberalism uses a narrative approach totheology, such as developed by Hans Frei, and argues that all thought andexperience is historically and socially mediated.Michener provides the reader with an accessible introductoryoverview of the origins, current thought, potential problems, and futurepossibilities of postliberal theology.
