FORMATPaperback LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description This original and ambitious book explores Christian theology of religions after colonialism, through the lens ot Trinitarian theology. It begins by exploring the development of Christian theological attitudes to religions beyond Christianity during the modern period, when Christian perspectives became hopelessly entangled in secularism and colonialism. However, the confidence in the univeral applicability of western cultural artefacts is now waning, and the second half of the book explores recent efforts to disentangle Eurocentrism from the meeting of the religions. In dialogue with Asian and feminist theologies, Jenny Daggers outlines a Trinitarian theology of religions in the light of these particular, feminist and Asian reflections. The book concludes with some reflection on ways forward for relations between the religions.

Daggers asks whether we can hope for a Christian theology of religions that might break free of Eurocentricism and its white supremacist legacy. Her proposal of a particularist Trinitarian model is worthy of our consideration. The work is theoretically sound, historically engaging and theologically innovative. A real challenge to the field." - Jeannine Hill Fletcher, Fordham University, USA"Daggers offers a Trinitarian theology of religions that is no longer complicit with a problematic Euro-American Christian colonial legacy, and that challenges pluralist claims that postliberal theology must necessarily isolate the religions into solipsistic silos. This ambitious book is must reading for all who care about theology of religions, a field often pronounced dead, but, as Daggers demonstrates, remains very much alive." - John J. Thatamanil, Union Theological Seminary, USA"This book presents a fresh, challenging postcolonial theology of religions in engagement with feminist and Asian theologies. Daggers depicts and comments on vast areas of literature related to her theme." - Gavin D'Costa, University of Bristol, UK Review Quote "For those interested in Christian engagement with religious others, this book is highly recommended.
