Concilium 2009/5 - Softcover

'The reason why Concilium is unique, precious and catholic is that it is an international theological review with articles written by authors from all over the world. It helps reader to move beyond the theological reflections of their own cultural circle and wrestle with theological approaches located in other cultures.'Gregory Baum, Concordia University, Montreal

Concilium is an international theological journal published five times a year in five languages. With its origins in the renewal of Catholic theological thinking following the Second Vatican Council, "Concilium" draws together a wide range of the best of current leading theological writers from Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. It is a catholic journal in the widest sense: rooted firmly in the Catholic heritage, open to other Christian tradition and the world's faiths. Each issue of "Concilium" focuses on a theme of crucial importance and the widest possible concern for our time. Topics of this title include: 'The Holy Fathers of Latin America' (Jose Comblin); 'If you were Indios - Bartolome de Las Casas' (Gustavo Gutierrez); 'In Archbishop Romero, God passed through El Salvador' (Jon Sobrino); and, 'Latin American Matristics' (Anna Maria Bidegain and Maria Clara Bingemer).
