Both a critique of post-Kantian modernity and a new theology that engages with issues of language, culture, time, politics and historicity, 'Being Reconciled' insists on the dependency of all human production and understanding on a God who is infinite inboth utterance and capacity.

This book is a complete translation of Marx's critical commentary on paragraphs 261-313 of Hegel's major work in political theory.

The writings of Sergei Bulgakov (1871–1944), like those of other major social thinkers of Russia’s Silver Age, were obliterated from public consciousness under Soviet rule. Discovered again after eighty years of silence, Bulgakov’s work speaks with remarkable directness to the postmodern listener. This outstanding translation of Philosophy of Economy brings to English-language speakers for the first time a major work of social theory written by a critical figure in the Russian tradition of liberal thought. What is unique about Bulgakov, Catherine (...) Evtuhov explains in her introduction to this book, is that he bridges two worlds. His social thought is firmly based in the Western tradition, yet some of his ideas reflect a specifically Russian way of thinking about society. Though arguing strenuously in favor of political and social liberty, Bulgakov repudiates the individualistic basis of Western liberalism in favor of a conception of human dignity that is compatible with collectivity. His economic theory stresses the spiritual content of life in the world and imagines national life as a kind of giant household. Bulgakov’s work, with its singularly postmodern balance between Western and non-Western, offers fascinating implications for those in the process of reevaluating ideologies in post-Soviet Russia and in America as well.

" Heureuse une vie qui commence par l'amour et finit par l'ambition ", dira Pascal. Le jeune Augustin a connu le premier mais se refuse vite à la seconde, et sa vraie vie débute avec le rejet des ambitions et le deuil des amours humaines. Ce natif de l'Afrique romanisée du Ve siècle qui voulait se faire moine (la règle qu'il institua influencera profondément et durablement l'organisation monastique) fut choisi comme évêque d'Hippone ; mais, malgré ses lourdes charges de pasteur, (...) de polémiste engagé dans les plus chauds débats doctrinaux de son temps, malgré ses déplacements et ses obligations d'homme de pouvoir, il sut " voler ", souvent sur le sommeil de ses nuits, les heures nécessaires à la rédaction d'une œuvre immense d'exégète et de théologien. Servie par la plume d'un écrivain de génie - il a, avec ses célèbres Confessions, inventé l'autobiographie, elle nourrira la pensée du Moyen Age, accompagnera à la Renaissance la redécouverte de l'héritage antique et alimente aujourd'hui encore la réflexion des philosophes et des théologiens (le corpus de cette œuvre semble d'ailleurs n'être jamais clos, et l'ensemble de lettres inconnues et de sermons inédits que l'on vient de retrouver éclaire d'un jour nouveau la figure du " docteur de la grâce "). Cette biographie restitue Augustin dans toute sa complexité et toute sa profondeur, aussi bien lorsqu'elle fait le portrait d'un homme hors du commun que lorsqu'elle dégage son apport majeur à l'histoire intellectuelle et à la consolidation du christianisme latin.

The essays in this new book from John Milbank range over the entire field of theology, and both extend and enrich the theological perspective underlying his earlier Theology and Social Theory. The essays are focused around the theme of a theological approach to language, and offer a richly textured and broad ranging inquiry which will contribute to a variety of contemporary debates.

This book presents the first debate between the Anglo-Catholic movement Radical Orthodoxy and Eastern Orthodox theologians.

Salvation is neither "individual" nor "social" but concerns insertion into an ecclesial narrative. This conclusion invites a series of metanarrative considerations by which, in turn, the "narrative ecclesiology" of Henri de Lubac is shown to be too apolitical in comparison with that of Augustine, Augustine's too resigned to the permanence of two cities compared with that of Hegel, and He- gel's too suppressive of the salvific viability of a non-coercive order compared with that of PierreSimon Ballanche. In a corrected form, (...) Augustine's philoso- phy of history outlines the basic narrative conditions for salvation, and this, rather than the metanarratives of enlightenment, gives the true possibility of social critique.
