Baptized Imagination: The Theology of George MacDonaldAshgate Publishing, Ltd., 1 Ιαν 2006 - 199 σελίδες The imagination has been called, the principal organ for knowing and responding to disclosures of transcendent truth. This book probes the theological sources of the imagination, which make it a vital tool for knowing and responding to such disclosures. Kerry Dearborn approaches areas of theology and imagination through a focus on the nineteenth century theologian and writer George MacDonald. MacDonald can be seen as an icon whose life and work open a window to the intersection of word, flesh and image. |
