THEO7667 · Theology
Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
This seminar explores the wide-ranging apophatic mood in contemporary thought and the diverse ways mystical theology has come to occupy a central role in recent reflection upon God. In addition to examining the role of contemplative practice in the work of philosophical and systematic theology, the seminar inquires into relationship between negative theology and the incarnation, as this relationship uniquely characterizes Christian apophasis.
