摘要：The Cambridge Companion has 23 chapters spread across 432 pages. The Oxford Handbook has 43 spread across 704 pages. Singly and together they are more like a reference collection than a book. And there’s too much to comment on in a review. So I’ll first say something about the way the two collections are divided into topics and issues. And then I’ll comment on a few of the contributions that I found most challenging and interesting. The Cambridge Companion has six parts. The first is an introduction that includes a list of systematic issues in Trinitarian theology. The second is a survey of the sources for the doctrine of the Trinity in the New Testament, in the Greek Fathers and in Latin Trinitarian theology. The third is an evaluation of how the Patristic tradition was renewed by Aquinas, by Bonaventure and by Protestant theologians during and after the Reformation. Part four covers contemporary theologians and theological movements. The theologians are Barth, Rahner, von Balthasar, Moltmann and Pannenberg. The movements are contemporary Orthodox theology, feminist theologies and the insights that come from Black, Latin American and Spanish‐American perspectives. Part five is a dialogue with other religions in the light of the doctrine of the Trinity: Confucianism, Taoism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism and Islam. The final part makes a number of systematic connections between the doctrine of the Trinity and Christology, Pneumatology, the Liturgy, sacraments, mysticism and sociopolitical ethics.
