Attention is directed to the history of Anglican theological content, methodology, and development with readings drawn mostly from Anglican theologians and historians. The two-semester course begins with Rowan Williams, Why Study the Past. We then examine philosophy and history in the formulations of Anglican perspectives on theological themes such as: the person, nature, and work of Jesus Christ; God’s gracious action in creation and redemption; the revolution caused by the debates of the 19th century; and the place of denominationalism in the formation of doctrine since the founding of the World Faith and Order Conference.
PREREQUISITE: Previous study in systematic theology, such as
completion of TH1-2.
