Edinburgh Critical History of Nineteenth-Century Christian Theology

Daniel Whistler is Professor of Philosophy at Royal Holloway, University of London. He is author and editor of numerous volumes on eighteenth and nineteenth-century philosophy, including the three-volume Edinburgh Edition of the Complete Philosophical Works of François Hemsterhuis, The Schelling-Eschenmayer Controversy, 1801: Nature and Identity (EUP, 2020), The Edinburgh Critical History of Nineteenth-Century Christian Theology, The Schelling Reader (Bloomsbury, 2020) and the forthcoming Oxford Handbook of Modern French Philosophy (Oxford University Press, 2022).

This volume offers a unique history of nineteenth-century Christian theology. Focusing on themes and problems rather than figures and great texts, the authors renew our understanding of theology. This volume is not merely for theologians, but philosophers, political theorists, and all those interested in how ideas shape our world.
