Overview

"This Special Issue and reprint seeks to inspire and awaken the pursuit of ""truth in being"", to discover the practical ways of expression to give life to the identity and mission of the Church: ""to bring good news to the poor"" (Lk 4: 18). Continental philosophy can be highly provocative, orienting the theological imagination and language of Christian faith towards new horizons. As a provocative means of thought, it challenges, guides and aids every generation of philosophers and theologians to renew their commitment to developing an affectivity of aggiornamento, of keeping up to date with the contemporary world from issues of identity, relevance and clarity to being, existence and consciousness. In this Special Issue, twelve international scholars share their philosophical and theological imagination of faith to create a vision for truth in the mystery of being, articulated as love. Theology is called upon to recognise philosophical turns throughout the centuries. This produces a hopeful resonance to recognise that practicing philosophy and theology today demands understanding the place of human suffering, temptation and will, and searching for meaning and wisdom. Continental philosophy recognises that Christian beliefs can be studied in the context of truth in being, and truth witnessed in the service of wisdom and love."
