The Dictionary of Historical Theology

Trevor A. Hart, Richard Bauckham

While theology can never be separated from other aspects of the church's life, entries in this volume (which vary in length from 500 to 15,000 words) concentrate deliberately on figures, schools of thought and significant texts in the development of Christian theology. Contributors have been urged to include biographical and wider historical material only in so far as this is germane to the task of locating subjects within their theological contexts, and exploring their particular relationship and cotributions to those contexts. - Preface.
