A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Is there such a thing as 'Christian Forgiveness' Christians speak as though there is. But what would it be? How would it differ from forgiveness as a basic human enactment? And if there is a distinctive Christian forgiveness, what might it have to say to our world today? To answer these questions, the present work traverses three distinctive intellectual landscapes continental philosophy, Anglo-American moral philosophy, and psychology to establish a phenomenology of forgiving before turning to contemporary Christian literature. The multi-layered dialogue that ensues challenges the assumptions of contemporary approaches-secular and Christian-and invites the reader to rethink the meaning of Christian forgiveness.
