Unfinished God: The Speculative Philosophical Theology of Ray L. Hart, ed. Alina N. Feld and Sean J. McGrath

Abstract

The Festschrift (or, the essays presented to a scholar on the occasion of their retirement or an anniversary) is a tradition that never quite took root in the English-speaking world. The reader of the present volume might therefore ask why Ray L. Hart, professor emeritus of religion at Boston University, has been presented not only with a Festschrift, but one that is of the most illustrious kind: the book is not only dedicated to Hart; all of its essays are about his work. As this edited volume attests, whoever he is, he has gathered unto himself an eminent readership in religious studies, philosophical theology, and the philosophy of religion.
