| Title | The Anglo-American Paradigm: Lost and Found in Current Theology | |
| Creator | Stone, Jerome A. | |
| Description | The main Western paradigm involves: 1) dichotomous thinking, 2) valuing abstraction qnd stability, 3) the quest for certainty, 4) search for foundations and proper method, and 5) a precise language. Postmodernism often favors the mirror images of these five. There is a third approach in marry Anglo-American writers which involves neither alternatives. This article analyzes four contemporary theologians, two of whom, Mark C Taylor and George Lindbeck, are rooted in the newer tradition and two, Phil Hefner and Delwin Brown, in the Anglo-American. This essay may be considered a plea to avoid the traditional-postmodern dichotomy. | |
