XTIANTHE 855
Mystical Theology
Kevin Hart
Description from DukeHub
This course explores the tradition of Christian mysticism and its contribution to addressing some challenges within contemporary theology. Mysticism will be understood as holistic commitment to the claim that the triune God of Christian worship is both active and accessible within the life of the church for the sake of its life and witness. Although precarious and at times unwieldy and misunderstood, Christian mysticism has the potential to animate and vivify the theological task this side of modernity's reductions.
