Klappentext zu „Asian Christian Theologians in Dialogue with Buddhism “
This book is a study of three of Asia's most respected contemporary theologians - Kosuke Koyoma, Choan-Seng Song, and Aloysius Pieris. It gives an introduction to Asian Buddhism and the Christian dialogue with Buddhists in Asia. Furthermore, it examines the work of each theologian in detail, looking at the method and content of their dialogue, and outlining its impact upon their respective theologies. The book provides a critique of their dialogue and engages with the theological issues that have emerged. In areas such as religious identity, theological method and liberation theology it is shown that their conversation with Buddhism contributes to the development of a genuinely Asian theology, and moreover raises important challenges to the worldwide theological community, churches and to those engaged in interreligious dialogue.

Pressezitat
"...this book deserves to be in every theological library in Asia." (Amos Yong, Dharma Deepika)"...I would recommend this book as a most valuable exploration of the work of three seminally important theologians. Its most important message is that exploration of this kind into the experience of theologians who have lived in situations of religious diversity much longer than many in the West should not simply be an academic exercise. It should be central to the renewal of Western Christianity in its developing multi-religious context." (Elizabeth J. Harris, Connections)
"This volume will be most useful to theological students and those seeking to understand the nexus of Buddhist and Christian interests in dialogue. As an assessment of the work of three Asian theologians, Fleming's study is an interesting exercise and will take its place on the shelves attending to their literature." (John Borelli, Theology Today)
