Description

In this astounding collection of interviews, the leading philosophical theologians of our time answer questions about their own formation and their vision of the field. They focus particularly on the philosophical voices that contributed most to their own development, and on how these voices shaped their understanding of what philosophical theology can achieve and how. They suggest important research questions that philosophical theologians should engage over the next few years, and describe significant methods or approaches that might support such engagement.

The book is both a moving collection of personal memoirs and a crisp snapshot of philosophical theology in the early 21st century. It will help theologians, philosophers, and intellectual historians understand how we got here and where we might be heading, as they are asked what research questions should be addressed in the future. In doing so, they muse on the typical failure modes in philosophical theology and divulge who were the most important philosophical voices to them.
