Probes various proposals and prospects for historical theology in light of recent scholarly trends. The history of dogma has become distinct from historical theology, which is less inclined to search the sources for justifications of present-day doctrines. The rise of social history has shifted the focus from the Great Thinkers to the lived religious experience of believers--and previously neglected resources--women, minorities, and so-called-heretics--are being retrieved.
