Contextual Christology: Voices from World Christianity and World Religions
Autor Edmund Chia, Gemma Tulud Cruzen Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 mai 2027
While not ignoring Euro/American theologies, they amplify voices from the global majority, social margins, ethnic communities, and religions other than Christianity. Thus, beyond featuring conventional theologians such as Augustine, Aquinas, and Barth, they attend to Buddhist and Muslim scholarship, Indian and Chinese thinking, and African and Latin American Christological symbols. While Jesus is presented as Lamb of God and Christ as risen Lord, Jesus is also interrogated as junzi, bodhisattva and sannyasi, and Christ scrutinized as supreme ancestor, crucified sage, and protector-liberator.

Recenzii
If you are looking for a text for a course on contemporary Christology or for personal continuing education, look no further. This book ticks all the boxes: up-to-date, comprehensive, balanced, and engagingly written. Only scholars with this husband-and-wife team's wide-ranging scholarship and pedagogical experience can produce this splendid theological gem. I am certain it will be well received worldwide.
Here, two leading, contemporary Asian Catholic theologians have joined forces, not only as a couple but as intellectual co-travellers. Gemma Tulud Cruz brings in her special expertise in feminism and migration and Edmund Chia his long lasting engagement with interreligious dialogue. A vibrant contribution to the interplay of contextual and intercultural Christology.
This book presents a comprehensive survey of Christologies from the Global South and in world religions. It provides a useful introduction to lesser-known theologians and broadens our theological imagination. The book is a great textbook and resource for faith communities grappling with Christ's incarnation and its expressions across many cultures and religions
Edmund Chia's and Gemma Cruz' book on Contextual Christologies is an ambitious and wide-ranging project, but they manage to succeed admirably--actually amazingly well. The breadth of their scholarship is stunning, and at the same time clear and accessible. This is a book that any Christian could read with profit, but it will be especially useful as a textbook both at the undergraduate and graduate level. It is the most comprehensive book on Christology that I know. It is a crowning achievement of two theologians who have spent their lives pushing theology beyond the ivory towers of the West. I can't recommend this book highly enough.
