This book brings scholars together to reflect on the topic of the Protestant Reformation, as well as the Roman Catholic Counter Reformation, the nature of science, and the unity of the Church. Five chapters in this collection represent five distinct theological formulations within Christianity; the other seven chapters are from a variety of historic, philosophic, and theological starting points on the topic. These twelve accounts range from theologies informed by the Classical Philosophy of Plato and Aristotle; medieval Jewish and Roman Catholic writers; Moses Maimonides and Thomas More; writers of the Protestant Reformation (Martin Luther, John Calvin, Richard Hooker, and William Shakespeare); the founders of modern science (Francis Bacon and T. H. Huxley), and the modern day theologies of Abraham Kuyper, Flannery O’Connor, H. R. Niebuhr, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I: Five Keynote Addresses\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter One: Douglas Kries, “Catholic Reflections on Reason and Faith after Five Hundred Years of Reform and Enlightenment”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Two: Jennifer Hockenberry Dragseth, “Sola Fide: What Happens to Reason When we are Justified by Faith Alone?”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Three: John Baxter, “The Grammar of Faith in Twelfth Night: Richard Hooker’s Gift to Shakespeare”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Four: Albert Wolters, “Reason and the Paradigm of the Nature-grace Relationship”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Five: Christina Bieber Lake, “An English Major’s Theology?
