This edited collection offers the first engagement with Werner G. Jeanrond's theological thinking, spanning from hermeneutics through systematic theology to politics. Available open access and featuring more than twenty renowned scholars with a global reach, this work tackles one of Jeanrond's key questions: "How can theological thought begin today, in the midst of a confusing plurality of methods?" The problem of the starting point requires a critical and self-critical theological reflection. The academics in this book embark on a journey which takes us through five different fields of study, each of which capture a strand of Jeanrond's far-reaching body of work. From hermeneutics to politics to moral virtues and spirituality, this volume provides a comprehensive look at the thought of one of the most influential systematic theologians of the twentieth century.
