Petrus van Mastricht (1630-1706)

Text, Context, and Interpretation. Edited by Adriaan C. Neele. With a Foreword by Carl R. Trueman.

The introduction about Petrus van Mastricht and Reformed Orthodoxy by Ryan M. McGraw is followed by nine essays (addressing Petrus' Theology, Philosophy, and Reception) by Jonathon D. Beeke, Elco van Burg, Gyeongcheol Gwon, Todd M. Rester, Philip J. Fisk, Yoshi Kato, Daniel J. Ragusa, Brandon J. Crawford and Adriaan C. Neele. Three Appendices complete the volume: Chronology of Life and Work of Petrus van Mastricht; Published work of Petrus van Mastricht; Secondary Literature. - This book locates Mastricht's ideas in the context of the theological and philosophical currents of his day. The pre-Revolutionary status of theology and philosophy in the wake of the Enlightenment had many of the same problems we see in theology today as relating to the use and appropriation of classical theology in a 21st-century context. 252 Seiten, gebunden (Reformed Historical Theology; Vol. 62/Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2020) leichte Lagerspuren, Mängelexemplarstempel auf Fußschnitt/unused, minor shelfwear, remainder mark stamp on the bottom edge
