What thresholds need to be jarred or moved (threshold as opening), probed and raised (threshold as limit, ceiling)? This book engages these questions, over two vaults: (1) “(re)Locating theological studies” contains essays that interrogate the purposes of theological studies (locally and globally), identify gaps due to the Western heritage and blind spots of “traditional theology,” and provide examples of how those gaps may be bridged when local concerns are engaged; (2) “Nativizing theological studies” contains essays that present and engage the heritage and wisdom of tangata whenua (indigenous, native people) of Aotearoa and Pasifika. These essays reaffirm the “native” rhetoric with pride. Overall, this collection of essays affirms that theological studies have a future, and that there is a role for theologians in and from Aotearoa New Zealand and Pasifika to play in navigating (into) that future.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 236mmItem Length: 158mmItem Width: 21mmItem Weight: 544gContributor: Keita Hotere (Contributions by), Te Aroha Rountree (Contributions by), David Tombs (Contributions by), Moeawa Callaghan (Contributions by), Stephen Garner (Contributions by), Emily Colgan (Contributions by), Beverly Moana Hall-Smith (Contributions by), Brian Fiu Kolia (Contributions by), George Zachariah (Contributions by), Rosemary Dewerse (Contributions by), Jione Havea (Edited by), Caroline Blyth (Contributions by), Kathleen P.
