摘要：THE MOST RECENT OFFERINGin Cambridge's Companion to Religion series, Vanhoozer's Companion to Postmodern Theology provides an excellent survey and introduction to those contemporary discussions in theology that often traffic under the banner of "postmodernism." The collection is opened by a judicious introduction by Vanhoozer in which he provides a Lyotardian-inspired "report on knowledge (of God)." The book is then divided into two parts: the first offers introductions to seven key movements in contemporary theology: "Anglo-American" postmodernity (Murphy and Kallenberg), post-liberal theology (Hunsinger), postmetaphysical theology (Carlson), decon-structive theology (Ward), reconstructive (a.k.a. process) theology (Griffin), feminist theology (McClintock Fulkerson) and Radical Orthodoxy (Long). The second part then takes up specific loci of Christian theology: Scripture and tradition (Vanhoozer), theological method (Stiver), the Trinity (Cunningham), the God-world relationship (Clayton), the human person (Webster), Christ and salvation (Lowe), ecclesiology (Grenz), and the Holy Spirit and Christian spirituality (Ford). The essays in the second part engage postmodernity in a to-and-fro fashion; as Vanhoozer puts it, "the chapters in Part two display both the postmodern condition of theology and the theological condition of postmodernity" (22).
