Conclusion
John N.C. Robinson holds a B.A Hons in Theology and Biblical Studies from Trinity College Dublin, and an M.Phil in Ecumenics and a PhD from the internationally known Irish School Ecumenics, Trinity College Dublin. He was vice-chair of the Young Leadership Council of the International Council of Christians and Jews for three years, and chair for a further two years, facilitating interfaith encounter between Jews, Muslims and Christians from Europe, the United States and the Middle East. He is also involved on an ongoing basis with the European Network for Buddhist-Christian Studies, and is a member of a number of international ecumenical and interfaith networks. He is particularly interested in the role of epistemology in interfaith dialogue, liberation theology, and the interaction between theology and gender, particularly in terms of how this affects marginalised communities.
ReviewsA markedly original piece of work. The hard-worked clarity
of his arguments makes the reader's task a pleasure. The book is an
authoritative, highly informative and generous contribution to
philosophical theology and interreligious dialogue. Its readers are
likely to be philosophical theologians, readers with an interest in
Lonergan, Newman, Rahner and Nāgārjuna, separately or conjointly.
It will appeal to comparative theologians who seek deep learning
from putting religious others into dialogue with one another. And
it will appeal to theorists of peace-making as Robinson argues also
for the relevance of his work to those who build peace between the
religions.Dr. John O'Grady, Vice-President, Network of
Buddhist-Christian Studies
