This collection of essays engages the basic themes of the five-year, joint research project (GOA) The Normativity of History. Theproject brought together specialists in the areas of Church History andSystematic Theology to investigate questions of truth and tradition inlight of their varying expertise. The thematic scope of this volumeincludes questions concerning tradition and its development, the presentcontext of plurality and its challenges for discerning a theologicalepistemology of tradition-bound truth, and the challenges of religiousdiversity for contemporary theology. As a whole, these reflectionssuggest that the force and weight of history must be adequatelyaccounted for when attempting to answer theological questions in amanner that does justice to a tradition that is very much embedded inand shaped by the complexities manifest in its living and at times, ambiguous history.
