Beginning with its anthropological foundations, Robin Ryan explores the development of Christian eschatology--the consideration of the "last things," our anticipation of our "joyful hope" as the liturgy says. Working his way through Scripture, the Christian tradition, and modern theology, Ryan ends with a reflection on Julian of Norwich's teaching about hope grounded in the love of God as exemplified by the passion of Christ, and considering the mystery of suffering.

"This work is a lucid overview of the major and minor themes of eschatology, supported by the best scholarship. Superb use of the Christian mystics. Excellent for textbook use."
--Harvey D. Egan, SJ, professor emeritus of mysticism and systematic theology, Boston College
