Index 330 8 $a'The State of the University' questions why theology is no longer considered a necessary subject in the modern university, and explores the role it should play in the development of our 'knowledge'.$bIn this book, controversial and world-renowned theologian, Stanley Hauerwas, tackles the issue of theology being sidelined as a necessary discipline in the modern university. It is an attempt to reclaim the knowledge of God as just that - knowledge. Questions why theology is no longer considered a necessary subject in the modern university, and explores the role it should play in the development of our "knowledge" Considers how theology is often excluded from the knowledges of the modern university because these are constituted by an understanding of time necessary to make economic and state realities seem inevitable Argues that it is precisely this difference that makes Christian theology an essential resource for the university to achieve its task - that is, to form people who are able to imagine a different world through critical and disciplined reflection Challenges the domesticated character of much recent theology by suggesting how prayer and the love of the poor are essential practices that should shape the theological task Converses with figures as diverse as Luigi Giussani, David Burrell, Stanley Fish, Wendell Berry, Jeff Stout, Rowan Williams and Sheldon Wolin Published in the new and prestigious Illuminations series. The book is an attempt to reclaim the knowledge of God as just that - knowledge. It is no secret that theology is no longer considered a necessary subject in the modern university. Why is it assumed that the kind of knowledge theology represents is in some fashion deficient when compared to other subjects? Hauerwas argues that theology is often excluded from the knowledges of the modern university because those knowledges are constituted by an understanding of time necessary to make economic and state realities seem inevitable. Yet it is precisely this difference that makes Christian theology, while being governed by a different understanding of time than that characteristic of the other disciplines of the university, an essential resource for the university to achieve its task - that is, to form people who are able to imagine a different world through critical and disciplined reflection. Hauerwas subsequently challenges the domesticated character of much recent theology by suggesting how prayer and the love of the poor are essential practices that should shape the theological task. Hauerwas makes this case by conversing with figures as diverse as Luigi Giussani, David Burrell, Stanley Fish, Wendell Berry, Jeff Stout, Rowan Williams and Sheldon Wolin. 606 $aGod (Christianity)$xStudy and teaching 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of (Religion) 606 $aChristian education 606 $aChurch and education 606 $aReligion$2eflch 606 $aGod (Christianity)$xStudy and teaching 606 $aChristian education 606 $aChurch and education 606 $aChristianity$2HILCC 606 $aReligion$2HILCC 606 $aPhilosophy & Religion$2HILCC 608 $aElectronic books.$2lcsh 615 0$aGod (Christianity)$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of (Religion) 615 0$aChristian education. 615 0$aChurch and education. 615 7$aReligion. 615 0$aGod (Christianity)$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aChristian education 615 0$aChurch and education 615 7$aChristianity 615 7$aReligion 615 7$aPhilosophy & Religion 676 $a230.0711 700 $aHauerwas$b Stanley$f1940-$0850604 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 801 2$bStDuBDSZ 801 2$bUkPrAHLS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996213072703316 996 $aThe state of the university$92075979 997 $aUNISA
