Giussani clarifies and assesses elements of Protestantism such as the democratic approach to Church-State relations, "The Great Awakening," Calvinism and Trinitarianism, and liberalism. His rich references and analytical descriptions reconstruct an overview of the development of a religion that has great importance in the context of spiritual life and American culture. He also displays full respect for the religious depth from which Protestantism was born and where it can reach, and expresses great admiration for its most prominent thinkers and spiritual leaders, including Jonathan Edwards, Horace Bushnell, Walter Rauschenbusch, Reinhold Niebuhr, and Paul Tillich. Further testament to Giussani's clear-minded and comprehensive knowledge of Christianity, American Protestant Theology makes the work of a master theologian available in English for the first time. 606 $aTheology, Doctrinal$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aProtestant churches$zUnited States$xDoctrines$xHistory 615 0$aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory. 615 0$aProtestant churches$xDoctrines$xHistory. 676 $a230.0440973 700 $aGiussani$b Luigi$0159648 701 $aBacich$b Cosmos Damian$01520712 701 $aSpencer$b Archibald J$01520713 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790897103321 996 $aAmerican Protestant theology$93759440 997 $aUNINA
