This volume is uniquely an anthology of theologizing by various Indian theologians. They have shared their reflections stemming from long years of teaching, writing and communicating theology.
• Their theologizing is organically related to the living context of today.
• They manifest their deep commitment to and love for the Church expressed through the preferential option for the poor and marginalized, and through their respect and recognition of multifarious cultures and religions.
• One can easily discover in these articles different strands: gender equality, human rights, care of our common home (planet earth), dignity of the person, secularism, vision of promoting the values of the Reign of God.
• They highlight the foundational aspects and perspectives that have radically influenced theologizing today.
• One will find articles on various context-oriented methods that have given a new leash of relevance, mission-orientedness and fruitfulness to theologizing in India.
• The different contexts in India – subaltern, feminist, aesthetics, intercultural, interreligious, ecological and pastoral – are vibrant in their theologizing.
As ITA marks forty years of its existence, this volume crystalizes the theological journey of Indian theologians in their creative and innovative methods of theologizing, various views and perspectives of contextualization, and the trend-setting paths that need to be taken in the future.
