商品簡介
Beginning a three-part project exploring language, literature, and the desire for God, Douglass (humanities for engineers and comparative literature, U. of Colorado-Boulder) reads a certain moment in the history of theology when it rediscovered and welcomed its original difficulty, and having used that rediscovery to win the day, lost courage and reinscribed these difficulties within the safe and guaranteed certitudes of orthodoxy. The moment belongs roughly to that portion of the fourth-century Trinitarian controversy that falls between the Council of Nicaea in 325 and the Council of Constantinople in 381, that is, after the problematic assertion of the homoousios but before its codification.
