Description
This text explores, in depth, two antithetical schools of postmodern theology, namely the radical orthodoxy of John Milbank and the nihilist textualism of Don Cupitt. The text also offers a sustained and comprehensive critique of Milbank's influential project from a nihilist textualist perspective. Althought this critique shares a number of themes underlying Cupitt's project, it also points up major difficulties with Cupitt's approach and concludes by mapping out a third way that leads beyond the responses of both Cupitt and Milbank.
