Sino-Christian Theology

Más información sobre el libro

"If a young Chinese intellectual grows up in a totally atheist environment hostile especially to the "religion of western imperialism", then what would induce him to become so interested in the question of the existence of God and the meaning of faith, that he decides to dedicate his life to the study of Christianity? By telling the story of his childhood and youth in the turbulent years of the Cultural Revolution, He Guanghu offers a vivid picture not only of his personal intellectual and spiritual development but also of the academic situation of modern and contemporary China. In the second part of this collection, several of He Guanghu's essays analyse the complicated contradictions and connections between Chinese politics, society, culture, and the Christian faith. The author also gives an insider's view of the development of Christian studies in China from the 1980s until today. His profound arguments will inspire any theologian and philosopher of religion."--Publisher
