Discerning the Mystery

by Andrew Louth

Published 7 April 1983
This book seeks to exorcize the spectre of the Enlightenment by drawing on H. G. Gadamer's demonstration of `how little the traditions in which we stand are weakened' by the legacy of the Enlightenment. It then applies these insights to theology where the importance of tradition and the unity between theology and spirituality are rediscovered.
