Discerning the Mystery: An Essay on the Nature of Theology

Andrew Louth

This book examines the influence of the Enlightenment on theology, arguing that its legacy did not profoundly affect the importance of tradition; that the ways of older theology hold a surprising relevance; and that the unity between theology and spirituality is once again discerned.

Praise for this book

"A most learned, well-written, and provoking book, with some surprises for all."--Expository Times"Very appealing.
