The perspective of Radical Orthodoxy is that a Christian theology informed and sustained by\u00a0<i>ressourcement<\/i>\u00a0(&#8220;return to the sources,&#8221; to the roots), by the retrieval of the classic Christian tradition, can plumb the depths of the meaning and coherence of the Christian confession. Such a theology resists any neat dualism between the sacred and the secular\u2014extending its domain of concern to all areas of culture. Such a breadth holds forth the prospect of understanding the world, our cultures, and our present age theologically\u2014from the perspective of a coherent Christian view of the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Theology\u2019 is taken to include theologies of all kinds, besides a predominant concern with the implications of orthodox Christian theology in particular. \u2018Philosophy\u2019 is intended in the most ample possible sense, to include all the various schools (Eastern and Western, Ancient, Medieval and Modern, Continental and Analytic) and disciplines.\u00a0\u2018Politics\u2019 is taken to indicate not only the entire practical branch of philosophy but, more particularly, the ways in which such a\u00a0Christian philosophical theology\u00a0broadly-construed can be operative in the midst of situations,\u00a0practices, relations, orderings\u00a0of lived existence.<\/p>\n<p>RADICAL ORTHODOXY: THEOLOGY, PHILOSOPHY, POLITICS intends to combine the academic and the current, the intellectual and the popular.\u00a0To this end, the journal presents pieces of varying length (taking full advantage of the flexibility offered by the online format) while also publishing work of a more artistic or poetic mode&#8212;be it\u00a0fiction,\u00a0poetry, or art.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/journal.radicalorthodoxy.org\/\">http:\/\/journal.radicalorthodoxy.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>CENTRE OF PHILOSOPHY AND THEOLOGY<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u2018Every doctrine which does not reach the one thing necessary, every separated philosophy, will remain deceived by false appearances. It will be a doctrine, it will not be Philosophy\u2019, (Maurice Blondel, 1861-1949)<\/p>\n<p>The Centre of Theology and Philosophy is a research-led institution organised at the interstices of theology and philosophy. It is founded on the conviction that these two disciplines cannot be adequately understood or further developed, save with reference to each other. This is true in historical terms, since we cannot comprehend our Western cultural legacy, unless we acknowledge the interaction of the Hebraic and Hellenic traditions. It is also true conceptually, since reasoning is not fully separable from faith and hope, or conceptual reflection from revelatory disclosure. The reverse also holds, in either case.<\/p>\n<p>The Centre is concerned with:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The historical interaction between theology and philosophy.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The current relation between the two disciplines<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Attempts to overcome the analytic\/ Continental divide in philosophy<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The question of the status of \u2018metaphysics\u2019. Is the term used equivocally? Is it now at an end? Or have 20th Century attempts to have a post-metaphysical philosophy themselves come to an end?<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The construction of a rich Catholic humanism<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/theologyphilosophycentre.co.uk\/\">http:\/\/theologyphilosophycentre.co.uk\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>ILLUMINATIONS: THEORY AND RELIGION<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Religion has a growing visibility in the world at large. Throughout the humanities there is a mounting realization that religion and culture lie so closely together that religion is an unavoidable and fundamental human reality. Consequently, the examination of religion and theology now stands at the centre of any questioning of our western identity, including the question of whether there is such a thing as \u2018truth\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>ILLUMINATIONS aims both to reflect the diverse elements of these developments and, from them, to produce creative new syntheses. It is unique in exploring the new interaction between theology, philosophy, religious studies, political theory, and cultural studies. Despite the theoretical convergence of certain trends they often in practice do not come together. The aim of ILLUMINATIONS is to make this happen, and advance contemporary theoretical discussion.<\/p>\n<p>SERIES EDITORS:<\/p>\n<p>Catherine Pickstock, John Milbank and Graham Ward<\/p>\n<p>BOOKS IN ILLUMINATIONS:<\/p>\n<p><i>Sacrifice and Community: Jewish Offering and Christian Eucharist<\/i><br \/>\nby Matthew Levering<br \/>\n(Wiley-Blackwell, 2005)<\/p>\n<p><i>The End of Work: Theological Critiques of Capitalism<\/i><br \/>\nby John Hughes<br \/>\n(Wiley-Blackwell, 2006)<\/p>\n<p><i>The State of the University: Academic Knowledges and the Knowledge of God<\/i><br \/>\nby Stanley Hauerwas<br \/>\n(Wiley-Blackwell, 2007)<\/p>\n<p><i>The Other Calling: Theology, Intellectual Vocation and Truth<\/i><br \/>\nby Andrew Shanks<br \/>\n(Wiley-Blackwell, 2007)<\/p>\n<p><i>God and the Between<\/i><br \/>\nby William Desmond<br \/>\n(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008)<\/p>\n<p><i>After Enlightenment: The Post-Secular Vision of J.
