Book Synopsis Theology After Wittgenstein by : Fergus Kerr

Download or read book Theology After Wittgenstein written by Fergus Kerr and published by SPCK Publishing. This book was released on 1997 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Intended primarily to introduce Wittgenstein to students of theology, but aimed also at philosophers interested in religion, the book focuses on those of Wittgenstein's writings (primarily in the Philosophical investigations) that relate to theological issues such as the inner life, the immortality of the soul and the relationship of the believer to church and tradtion. By taking up the main points raised by reviewers of the first edition, the author responds in his new material to a wide range of recent literature and other interpretations of Wittengenstein's -- often seemingly ambiguous -- religious positions, and in so doing paints an absorbing picture, for a fresh set of readers, of how theology might look 'after Wittgenstein'."--Last page of cover.
